Re: With holding fee while insurance claim finishes

Not if client requested that you do the work, and you completed the work. In other words, if your contract was with the client and not the insurance company.

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can e-mail me for more information about low cost face-to-face, on-line, or a telephone consultation with a lawyer in our office.
