In some cases, for example, the parties to the contract have agreed on the subject matter of attorney fees in the contract, or in some intellectual property cases such as trademark rights and patent rights, the plaintiff requests the defendant to bear the attorney fees arising from the investigation and stop the infringement in the complaint, and the court may decide that the attorney fees shall be borne by the losing party. In addition, if both parties stipulate in the contract that the lawyer's fee shall be borne by the losing party, then the lawsuit request for lawyer's fee will generally be supported in the case of prosecution or arbitration.
Legal objectivity:
Article 29 of the Measures for Payment of Litigation Costs stipulates that the litigation costs shall be borne by the losing party, unless the winning party voluntarily bears them. If the case is partially won or partially lost, the people's court shall decide the amount of litigation costs borne by the parties according to the specific circumstances of the case. * * * If the parties lose the case, the people's court shall decide the amount of litigation expenses to be borne by each party according to the interest relationship between the parties and the litigation object.
