1Opinion of the CourtDana, J.

[¶ 1] Laurence Kelly appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (Cumberland County, Wamn, J.) in favor of QAD Investors, Inc. on its claim against Kelly for failure to fulfill his obligations pursuant to a promissory note. Kelly contends that the court erred in finding him liable on a note that he did not sign, and was not signed or ratified on behalf of himself or the partnership he formed with Stephen MacKenzie; in awarding attorney fees to QAD pursuant to the note; and in awarding attorney fees in excess of QAD’s costs of collection. We disagree and affirm.
