Syllabus
Summary judgment unpaid legal services expert report self-serving affidavit Civ.R. 54(C). Judgment affirmed. The trial court properly entered summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff law firm on its claim for unpaid legal services. The law firm's motion for summary judgment was supported by an affidavit and specific, corroborating evidence. The trial court properly found the defendant's affidavit submitted in opposition to the law firm's motion was self-serving. Although the affiant claimed that the law firm overcharged it, the supporting documentation was deficient in lending support to that claim. The amount of the judgment in favor of the plaintiff law firm was proper under Civ.R. 54(C). Although it is a different amount than prayed for in the complaint, the plaintiff's documentation supports the amount.
