Item Open Access Attorney fees in repeated relationships(Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 2016) Graham, Brad; Robles, JackWe investigate contracts between a law firm and a corporate client involved in a repeated relationship. In contrast to the previous literature pertaining to one-time interactions between clients and attorneys, we find that the contingent fee is not the best arrangement. Rather, the contingent fee is dominated by a contract which, we argue, an outside observer could not distinguish from simple hourly fee contract. This contract includes an hourly fee equal to the law firm’s opportunity cost, a lump sum, and a retention function. The lump sum payment is independent of the number of hours worked by the law firm and the outcome of the case. The repeated nature of the relationship allows the client to create a contract where the desire to maintain the relationship induces the law firm to exert the optimal level of effort in the current case.Item Restricted ECON201: Economics: Intermediate Microeconomics(Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 2024) Petkov, Vladimir; Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON211: Economics: Industrial Organisation(Victoria University of Wellington, 2010) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON211: Economics: Industrial Organisation(Victoria University of Wellington, 2011) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON211: Economics: Industrial Organisation(Victoria University of Wellington, 2012) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON211: Economics: Industrial Organisation(Victoria University of Wellington, 2013) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON211: Economics: Industrial Organisation(Victoria University of Wellington, 2014) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON314: Economics: Game Theory(2023) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON328: Economics: Industrial Organization(Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 2023) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON339: Economics: Information Economics(Victoria University of Wellington, 2011) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON339: Economics: Information Economics(Victoria University of Wellington, 2013) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2010) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2011) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2009) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2015) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2014) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2005) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2013) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON404: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory A(Victoria University of Wellington, 2007) Robles, JackItem Restricted ECON405: Economics: Advanced Microeconomic Theory B(Victoria University of Wellington, 2012) Robles, Jack
