ORDER-RESPONSE/REPLY REQUESTED
|
|
The Court, having heard oral argument, hereby requests that The Florida Bar and the Florida Bar's Family Law Rules Committee file an amended proposal for Rule Regulating the Florida Bar 4-1.19 (Collaborative Law Process in Family Law), or other amendments to the Rules of Professional Conduct as necessary, that includes provisions requiring collaborative lawyers to inform clients considering participation in the collaborative law process as to the fees or costs the client can reasonably expect to incur in the process, including the lawyer's fees and reasonable fees for mental health and financial professionals. Given that the Collaborative Law Process Act adopted by the Florida Legislature in chapter 2016-93, Laws of Florida, does not take effect until after this Court adopts proposed rules of procedure and professional responsibility, the amended proposal must be filed with the Court on or before May 16, 2017.
