“The Plaintiffs' attorneys in the Class VI Actions will apply to the Court for an award of attorneys' fees not to exceed 25% of the recovery pursuant to Settlement and for reimbursement of their out-of-pocket expenses, including expert witness fees. The Plaintiffs' attorneys will also apply to the Court for awards of attorneys' fees upon the respective recoveries on behalf of Class VI and settlement Subclass 2 pursuant to the Boesky, Milken, and Drexel Settlements.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The Court has broad discretion which should be appropriately exercised to adjust the lodestar to take into account such factors as: (i) the contingent nature of the expected compensation for their services; (ii) the consequent risk of nonpayment viewed as of the time of filing the suit; (iii) the quality of the representation; (iv) the results achieved. In high risk common fund cases such as these, courts normally apply a multiplier to the lodestar to adjust for the foregoing considerations in arriving at the total fee to be awarded, (footnotes omitted).”
