Legal Question in Family Law in California
My attorney and I entered into a Real Property Lien Agreement which states " my attorney fees will be paid out of any escrow this property may encounter." The Lien is in the amount of 20K, balance currently owed is 15K. Will this agreement shield me from any liability to pay the balance owed in cash?
Will Borson Petition likely be granted when there is a Fee Agreement in the form of Real Property Lien in place?

As you have been told, a Borson motion is just like any other attorneys fees motion, except it comes on the cusp or heels of firing the attorney. As for the lien, the language you quote just by itself would not mean you would be discharged of responsibility for payment of the fees in cash.
