Is the legal professional fees agreement concluded between the client and their lawyer binding on the opposing party in the lawsuit when claiming compensation for these fees?

⚡ Quick Answer:
No, the legal professional fees agreement is binding only on its parties (the client and the lawyer), and its effect does not extend to the opposing party in the lawsuit. The court has discretionary power in determining the compensation due for litigation fees, independently of the contract's value.
