Attorney's fee is a chiefly United States term for compensation for legal services performed by an attorney (lawyer or law firm) for a client, in or out of court. It may be an hourly, flat-rate or contingent fee. Recent studies suggest that when lawyers charge a flat-fee rather than billing by the hour, they work less hard on behalf of clients and clients get worse outcomes. Attorney fees are separate from fines, compensatory and punitive damages, and (except in Nevada) from court costs in a legal case. Under the "American rule", attorney fees are usually not paid by the losing party to the winning party in a case, except pursuant to specific statutory or contractual rights.

  • 수임료(受任料, 영어: attorney's fee)란 송사과정에서 변호사가 받는 수수료를 뜻한다. 승소 배상료의 일부를 받는 방식이나 고정액을 받는 방식, 혹은 일한 시간에 비례에 받는 방식등 다양하다. 프로 보노활동의 경우 수임료 없이 사건을 맡기도 한다. 현재 미국에서는 민사사건에서 막대한 수임료를 쫓아 과다한 소송제기로 논란이 되고 있으며 사법개혁의 한 과제이기도 하다. 한국에서도 과도한 수임료로 논란이 되기도 하였다. (ko)
