Alternative Fee Recovery Sample Clauses

Alternative Fee Recovery. Should anyone other than you or your client(s) be required to pay attorney fees to the prevailing party pursuant to a fee-shifting provision or statute, such person will be required to pay you or your client(s) the greater of either (1) the amount that you or your client(s) were charged for the Firm’s services or (2) a court- awarded reasonable fee under the prevailing party provision or statute. “Reasonable fee” refers to the appropriate fee amount determined by the court after taking into consideration the reasonable number of hours expended and the reasonable rate to apply to those hours. A court-awarded fee may be reasonable although it is greater than the amount specified in the Engagement Letter Agreement. In turn, you will be required to pay any court-awarded fee to the Firm, minus any fees you already paid to the Firm.
