Legal Question in Consumer Law in New Jersey

Accepting settlement offer

I am a plaintiff in a lawsuit involving multiple defendants. The defendant that we've sued enjoined the other parties. One of those parties has offered a small settlement to get out of the suit.

If I accept this, how does it affect the contingency fee agreement?
