Description
Gordon C. Brydger, P.A., appeals an order denying its motion to satisfy an attorney's charging lien as untimely. We reverse. Because Brydger's notice of charging lien was filed in the original action prior to its termination, it was properly perfected. Additionally, Brydger promptly moved for a judgment on the charging lien once Brydger discovered that a final judgment had been entered without notice to him and without resolving the charging lien issue. We remand so that the trial court can determine the proper amount of the charging lien and impose the judgment against any responsible parties. On April 25, 2000, Brydger filed a notice and claim for attorney's charging lien and money judgment to secure fees owed by former wife, Adrienne Victoria Wolfe, in her dissolution action against former husband, Larry Charles Wolfe. A copy of the notice was sent to James M. Henderson, Esq., who was counsel for former husband at the time, and to former wife, who was then pro se.
