When Arizona creditors file a lawsuit against a borrower or customer, they should seek an award for attorney’s fees as a part of the judgment rendered. Most loan documents and credit applications contain a provision providing for the award of attorney’s fees. If your contract does not contain this provision, you should immediately contact the offices of Windtberg & Zdancewicz, PLC.
The prevailing party in a lawsuit has the burden to prove that the fees requested are reasonable. This means that your attorney must keep detailed records so the judge can evaluate the services provided, the amount of time expended on the case, and the overall reasonableness of the attorney’s fees. Any uncertainty regarding the reasonableness of the attorney fees will be resolved against the party seeking fees.
The attorneys at Windtberg & Zdancewicz keep detailed, accurate and current records of the legal work performed on your case. We will strive to not only win your case, but get an award for your attorney’s fees as well. If you are interested in learning more, please contact us today!
