(9th Cir. 1988) 850 F.2d 537, 543 (“We conclude that permitting district courts to lower otherwise reasonable statutory fees because the attorney agreed to represent the plaintiff for a percentage of damages that turns out to be less than a reasonable hourly rate would deter vigorous pursuit of civil-rights claims, [and] would deprive civil rights attorneys of a reasonable compensation as defined by the Supreme Court. []Q A contrary rule would offer an unjustified windfall to defendants.”); see also Cruz v. Superior Court
