Servants requiring fees? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

retainers

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'servants' is the first definition.
('retainer' can be a synonym of 'servant')

'fees?' is the second definition.
(I know this)

'requiring' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for retainers that I've seen before include "Family servants" , "Financial inducements" , "Money deposits or servants to nobility" .)
