Attorney's fees are reimbursable so long as they are out of the client's pocket. For example, all the clients who incurred fees with Tully who then came with me are entitled to the fees they paid Tully as well as the fees they paid us. When I ask for fee reimbursement, I ask for the total, not just what the clients paid us - because what matters is what is out of the client's pocket. Anne could have 10 diff attorneys and it would be the same thing.
I'm sure they want their fees back because they are too broke to hire another attorney. Maybe we could cut then a deal and agree to give back some of the fees in exchange for then signing something agreeing not to file any complaints against us. I only did that once (at Tully), but they (espec Peter) are just really difficult.
