Legal Fee Audits and Analyses

In the area of analysis of legal fees and expenses in litigation, LCM provides services both to parties seeking fees and those opposing fee requests. Typical situations include:

  1. Fee disputes between clients and their own law firms;
  2. "Fee-shifting" cases – cases where a party in a lawsuit (typically the loser) is required by law to pay the opposing party's legal fees;
  3. Cases where the legal fees are being paid by someone other than the client itself (most commonly an insurance company);
  4. Situations where fees need to be allocated among claims or parties; and
  5. Where a court wants an independent review of legal fees presented to the court for reimbursement.
