Case Contribution Award Clause Samples

A Case Contribution Award clause defines the terms under which certain parties, often plaintiffs or class representatives, receive additional compensation for their efforts or risks in pursuing a legal case. This clause typically outlines eligibility criteria, the process for requesting the award, and the factors a court or decision-maker will consider, such as time invested, risks assumed, or benefits provided to the group. Its core function is to incentivize active participation and leadership in litigation by offering recognition and compensation for extraordinary contributions, thereby ensuring that key individuals are fairly rewarded for their role in achieving a favorable outcome.
