Miller, Miller & Canby’s Maury Epner writes about the award of attorneys’ fees in Maryland for the publication of the Maryland State Bar Association Litigation Section. The article specifies two exceptions to the established “American Rule” which prevents the prevailing party in a lawsuit from recovering attorney fees as part of damages. These exceptions, contractual and statutory fee-shifting provisions, are outlined and examined in the article titled, “Attorneys’ Fees in Maryland: Careful What You Wish For!”
