Law school courses omit telling you the practical tactics and practical law you need to know to recover, and defend against, attorney fees claims and awards. That was a big omission in your law school education for today's law practice. (Not your fault; it's just that law schools don't know that in today's legal world, attorney fees are important!)

On the plaintiff's side, you should know there are lots of chances for having the adversary pay your attorney fee, and how to effectively prove the full extent of your reasonable attorney fee. It surely makes your client happy, and makes more cases pay well.
On the defense side, do not be the all-too-average defense lawyer's who does not know how to effectively defeat the plaintiff's attorney fee claim. A big attorney fee award against your client is a good route to an upset client. And defense counsel - remember that your defendant client also may be able to claim substantial attorney fees as an award.
On both sides of the case, you can often break open a deadlocked settlement negotiation by having the "we know how to can prove the amount of the attorney fee award against you" card to play. That itself is sufficient reason to make a $40 investment in Attorney Fee Awards: a handbook.

At the start of the case, before it is too late, on either side of the case, you must know the tips and tactics for proving or disproving attorney fees, including how to handle the expert witness that may be disclosed only late in the cae We cannot overemphasize --- counsel on both sides each need to have a compact handbook at the start of the case - Attorney Fee Awards: a handbook for attorneys.

Read the handbook before cases come in the door, so you

Know the basics of attorney fee awards for that case, and
Know what needs to be in your time records, as soon as the case starts.

Dear Fellow Attorney,

The fact is, most attorneys don't get adequate reasonable attorney fee's awards --- or don't defeat fee awards when they are on the defense --- for one simple reason:

They simply don't know either: the fee-shifting opportunities that exist, or, the best tactics to use in legal fee claim disputes.

You don't have to be one of those attorneys!
