Welcome to Our Blog
Welcome and thanks for visiting Barger & Wolen's new Litigation Management and Attorneys' Fees Blog. Our firm assists our clients -- which include lawyers, insurers, governmental entities and fee auditors -- in analyzing the reasonableness and necessity of costs and fees incurred in complex litigation. We have testified as legal fee experts in the independent evaluation of hundreds of millions of dollars incurred in national mass tort cases, prevailing party situations, complex construction disputes and environmental cleanup and coverage cases. We also help implement billing guidelines for insurers and implement cost controls in ongoing complex litigation.
As such, we recognize the importance of staying up-to-date on the latest decisions and news in this area. We therefore naturally thought the creation of a blog would not only assist our clients, but help others stay in touch with the cutting edge of this rapidly growing area of the law. We'll discuss the newest court decisions -- both published and unpublished -- as well as the latest editorial articles and books on the subject of attorneys' fees. We also hope to create a forum, for you the readers, to express your opinions on these issues.
So join us. We encourage comments, and please feel free to send us messages if you'd rather not have your question published.
Let us know what's on your mind (as long as it deals with litigation management, of course).
