Description
GROSSE, J. -- William R. Levinson was discharged by his client in a contingent fee case that ultimately ended with a substantial settlement for the client. Levinson asserted an attorneys lien as to this settlement. The issue of the lien and the amount to be awarded Levinson for his efforts was tried in a summary proceeding on affidavits. Levinson quarrels with that procedure and the amount of the award. Contrary to his assertions, we hold that the statutory procedure, although summary in nature, comports with the requisites of due process and that the amount of the award was reasonable.
