OPINION
Opinion by
Justice FITZGERALD.
Brazos Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. undertook eminent domain proceedings, seeking to condemn property owned by Robert Wade Weber for a power substation. After the special commissioners 1 determined the value of the property at issue, Brazos Electric voluntarily dismissed the proceedings. The trial court awarded Weber $201,213 in attorney’s fees and expenses. Brazos Electric appeals, arguing the award was based on insufficient evidence of a reasonable and necessary fee and was inequitable and unjust. We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
