Bill Summary

Attorney's fees. Increases: (1) the amount of attorney's fees that may be incurred by an offeror to $250 per hour; and (2) the total amount of attorney's fees, costs, and expenses that may be awarded to not more than $5,000; with respect to a qualified settlement offer.

AI Summary

This bill amends Indiana law to increase the maximum hourly rate for attorney's fees that can be awarded to an offeror (the party making a settlement offer) from $100 to $250 per hour. It also increases the total amount of attorney's fees, costs, and expenses that can be awarded to the offeror from $1,000 to $5,000, in cases where the final judgment is less favorable to the recipient (the party receiving the settlement offer) than the terms of the qualified settlement offer.
