An attorney bills a client for time spent traveling to a deposition during which the attorney also worked on another client's matter. Under the Model Rules, the proper billing approach is:
-
A
Bill the full travel time to the first client and none to the second.
-
B
Bill the full travel time to both clients.
-
C
Bill only the portion of travel time fairly allocable to each client's work.
-
D
Bill travel time only if the fee agreement expressly permits it.
