A principle in equity used as a basis for determining a lawyer's professional fees in the absence of contract.
The compensation of lawyers for professional services rendered is subject to the supervision of the court, not only to guarnatee that the fees they charge remain reasonable and commensurate with the services they have actually rendered, but to maintain the dignity and integrity of the legal profession as well.
A Latin term which means, "as much as deserved."
