The trial court in this high-asset divorce action properly declined to enforce the charging liens that had been filed by the plaintiff’s attorneys.

In Pounders v Fawaz, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial court’s order denying the plaintiff’s motion to terminate the equitable lien on the settlement proceeds.

At the end of last year, the COA, clarified the amount of due process required when an attorney seeks enforcement of charging liens secured by a divorce judgment signed by the client debtor.
