English term
the plaintiff waives the right to any legal and expert fees
English
Law/Patents
Law: Contract(s)
Would it be correct in any legal context, where the plaintiff is a litigant, not an expert, or a lawyer. I think it is incorrect but I would like to hear someone else's opinion.

I think it is correct.
The right that the plaintiff is waiving is not the right to legal and expertise he has earned himself, but the right to be awarded the legal and expert fees incurred by the defendant.

: Why such a modest confidence level? Oops, just noticed: these would be the legal and expert fees incurred by the Plaintiff, not by the Defendant.

Even where such notice is given, a plaintiff waives the right to such fees by asking for more than the specified amount at trial.
