"An attorney's fee should be consistent with the services rendered, that is to say, which is fair and reasonable. What is fair and reasonable depends, of course, on the facts and circumstances of each case. We consider the amount in issue, the questions of law involved and whether they are unique or novel, the hours worked and the diligence displayed, the result obtained, and the experience, standing and ability of the attorney who rendered the services. Each of these factors is important, but no one is controlling." Colonial, 464 A.2d at 743.
