X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Ford &amp; Harrison attorney Rachel Krause will present a session entitled <em>Anatomy of a Fee Award - Determining a Reasonable Fee</em> at the Life, Health, Disability and ERISA Claims Seminar hosted by DRI, April 28 - 30, 2010.</p>  <p><strong>About the Program</strong></p>  <p>How does a court determine a &quot;reasonable&quot; fee? Should an attorney&#39;s hourly rate depend on the size of his or her firm and location? What do judges love/hate to see in a fee apllication? What are the best strategies for reducing an award?&nbsp; What does it mean to prevail? Are fees recoverable on a remand? What is the applicability of inferences in favor of the plaintiff and are these inferences justified?&nbsp; All of these questions will be posed to a leading jurist by a seasoned defense attorney.&nbsp; Walk away with a complete understanding of rates and splits among circuit court fee awards.&nbsp; Treatment will also be given to cases awarding fees to the defendant, including interpleader actions.</p>  <p></p>
