Abstract

The article discusses the manner of setting remuneration for an attorney ad litem representing several formal coparties to the same litigation. In practice, this issues arouses controversies. It is assumed that such an attorney is entitled either to a single remuneration or several remunerations depending on the number of represented coparties. In reference to the Supreme Court Resolution of 10 July 2015, III CZP 29/15, the article is in favour of the latter position. The view that in such situation the court should reduce the remuneration in case it is justified by the amount of work done by the attorney, the undertaken moves, and the nature of the case.
