Reasonableness Of Fees: $102,737.50 Contractual Fees Award Over An $18,000 Dispute Was No Abuse Of Discretion

Hourly Rates Claimed By L.A. Attorneys Were Reasonable.

            What is the price for plaintiff losing a dispute on an $18,000 EDD payment worth against a defendant who prevailed on this issue in civil litigation?  The answer was provided in Golden Noodles, Inc. v. Souk, Case Nos. B322781/B327031 (2d Dist., Div. 4 Jan. 18, 2024) (unpublished).  Ta da!—the answer is $102,737.50 was a proper fee award for L.A. attorneys, a 40-year-plus attorney charging $350 per hour and a 10 year second attorney charging $100 per hour, attorneys winning the case for the defendant.
