|
Date: February 24th, 2026 2:42 PM Author: cruel-hearted roast beef Congrats! What was the other side's argument? That small firm lawyers should get fees adjusted downward accordingly?
Did you have instances of clients paying you hourly rates (not contingency) similar to biglaw to show that the market says you're worth it? |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 3:01 PM Author: Iridescent Sexy Nibblets Mediation Yeah that was the argument of both the other side and the dc judge. But CA9 was like, nah this guy is like Darrow and Spence.
As to the second question … *sucks teeth* THATS IRRELEVANT!! |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 3:05 PM Author: cruel-hearted roast beef ljl 180
Did the other side make that second point--anyone can say they're worth biglaw rates. But if clients' aren't hiring you at biglaw rates, you ain't actually worth biglaw rates? What did 9th C say about that? |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 3:38 PM Author: Iridescent Sexy Nibblets Mediation There’s already plenty of CA9 precedent (implied by SCOTUS’s opinion in 1988 fees cases) holding that the actual rates charged aren’t relevant. I don’t think it even came up again in the appellate stage of this case. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5837972&forum_id=2Reputation#49692135) |
|
Date: February 24th, 2026 5:22 PM Author: cruel-hearted roast beef Whoa. What's the reasoning? Example citation? "Actual fees charged aren't relevant" sounds like huge legal reasoning fraudlies.

|
Date: February 24th, 2026 4:00 PM Author: Iridescent Sexy Nibblets Mediation The laugh line was more me fumbling and lisping about how I hate to be immodest, but; and then Judge Mendoza saying, “you’re great, we get it.”
My preferred lisping line was one I borrowed from Trump, saying that it makes no sense to award lower rates to us than to “parters at big law firms who no one has ever heard of; no one has ever even heard their name.” |
