Fla. Stat. § 744.639

Current through Chapter 226 of the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 744.639 - Attorney's fee

The fee for the attorney filing the petition and conducting the proceedings shall be fixed by the court in an amount as small as reasonably possible, not to exceed $250. However, this section is not to be interpreted to exclude a petition for extraordinary attorney's fees, properly filed, and if approved by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, does not necessitate a hearing before the court for approval, but the court shall enter its order for withdrawal of said attorney's fees from the ward's guardianship account accordingly.
