Rick Duplantier and Carlina Eiselen recently represented an expert/accountant who had performed work in a complex divorce proceeding. The party that hired the firm’s client refused to pay him for his services. Although the trial judge reduced the expert’s fee to one-third of the total charged, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and rendered a verdict in favor of the expert for his full fee, plus attorneys’ fees and court costs.
