Williams v. Power

Solicitor-client costs are not warranted; the tariffs alone undercompensate the successful party given complexity and volume of proceedings, but claimed fees contain duplication and lack sufficient detail; applying principles and an updated rule of thumb ($25,000 per day) and adjusting for duplication and partial successes, respondent recovers 55% of her claimed legal fees, resulting in an award of $87,208 to be paid by the applicant to the respondent.

  • Parenting time
  • Mobility/relocation
  • Contempt of court
  • Production orders
  • Costs assessment
  • Tariff application
