Florida Charging Liens for Law Firms

Charging Liens are one of two liens that protect Florida Lawyers for payment of their fees and service.

Probate Attorney John Pankauski discusses charging liens as a way to protect Law Firms for payment for their services. One way is to put a lien on the file although with the advent of the digital age, very few physical documents are kept in the hands of the attorney. The more important lien is the charging lien which should be part of the contract between the client and the Probate Law Firm.
