Custody! Divorce! Parenting time! Money! Disagreements over children! In this Episode 15, Attorneys Kevin R. Johnson and Barry C. Boykin discuss a divorce case, but NOT the husband v. wife part of the case. Instead, they wrestle with the topic of attorney fees, and what the courts in that case found reasonable. The husband's former attorney, after ending representation, asked the court to award him $48,000 in unpaid fees. The trial and Appellate Court relied on the principle that a lawyer's fees must be reasonable. The question is: When are an attorney's fees "Reasonable?"Custody and Divorce Lawyers Barry C.
