Syllabus

Attorney fees CSPA Civ.R. 52. Trial court did not abuse its discretion when it elected to award an amount in attorney fees that was approximately 16 percent of the award appellant requested under the CSPA. The record reflected that the trial court's order took into consideration the work that applied to the CSPA defense as well as the other claims in the case and adjusted the award accordingly. Additionally, the trial court did not err when it denied appellant's request for findings of fact and conclusions of law pursuant to Civ.R. 52. In the instant case, the trial court's ruling coupled with other parts of the record provided an adequate basis for appellate review, such that the trial court substantially complied with Civ.R. 52.
