Quantum Meruit

Quantum Meruit is a Latin term that means, “as much as is deserved.” The principle of quantum meruit was introduced in the 17th century in England to protect the rights of those who provided services without being properly compensated. Today quantum meruit is applied in a variety of different applications including attorney fees, construction work, government contracts, and physician’s fees.

If you provide services without a contract in place, the legal principle of quantum meruit helps to ensure that you get paid. If you feel someone has taken advantage of a business relationship or you’re being underpaid for your services, you may want to speak with an attorney.

It’s important to note, we do not offer legal advice or legal services of any kind.

In order to recover fees for your services, you need to provide answers to four important questions. You must prove the services were rendered, and that they were rendered to the specific defendant. Then you must prove the services were used and enjoyed by the defendant. Finally, you must prove the defendant was aware that you, the plaintiff, expected to be paid for the services.
