Abstract

The article discusses attorneys' fees and an individual's right to recover fees for fees based on a contractual prevailing party fee provision in Florida as of April 2013, focusing on the Florida Supreme Court's ruling in the case State Farm Fire & Casualty Co. v. Palma and the Florida Fourth District Court of Appeal case Waverly at Las Olas Condominium Association Inc. v. Waverly Las Olas LLC. Florida's state statute on lawyers' fees is addressed, along with reasonableness and contracts.
