다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This Study is concerned about how attorneys’ fees should be determined, and what are the rules that control over excessive fees. A lawyer should not charge more than a reasonable fee, for excessive cost of legal services would deter layman from utilizing the regal system in protection of their rights. Adequate compensation is necessary in order to enable the lawyer to serve his client effectively and to preserve the integrity and independence of the profession. In order to escape fee disputes, it is desirable that a lawyer reaches a clear written agreement with his client as soon as feasible after he has been employed. A lawyer can be disciplined for charging too much, and courts have inherent authority to reduce excessive fees. For the goal to provide a simple, expeditious and inexpensive forum to resolve fee disputes should be enacted a mandatory fee arbitration system. A contingent fee agreement is now unrestricted admissible in korea. But it should be forbidden in criminal and matrimonial cases.
