In today's litigation practice, the economics of attorney fees has never been more important.  With the rise in fee-shifting litigation and the growing body of attorney fee law, attorney fees have become a highly specialized practice area.  Whether you're seeking to recover fees in court or adjudicate a fee dipsute with a former client, today's litigators require both substantive and procedural knowledge of attorney fee jurisprudence.  In fact, pursuing the right attorney fee strategy from the outset can often mean millions of dollars more (or less) in attorney fees.

This seminar provides useful and practical information on the economics of attorney fees in complex cases.  From achieving prevailing party status, to well-documented fee requests, to allocation issues, to rates and billing issues, The Attorney Fees Conference - 2011 covers a range of complex attorney fee issues in a number of underlying litigation areas.  This conference is widely regarded as the nation's largest and most comprehensive program on attorney fees.  The program includes a course book with over 100 pages of substantive material on attorney fee matters.
