SUMMARY:
Matthew D. Weidner, P.A. has been successfully representing the City for over seven years in municipal lien foreclosure lawsuits. The current fee structure was first established in 2018 and was later revised in 2022 to allow Counsel to provide the City with any monetary recovery through a check containing the total amount of the monetary recovery made less the applicable attorney’s fees and costs owed to Counsel. The amended fee structure results in no cost of this agreement except when foreclosures occur, in which the City Attorney’s Office will bring said foreclosures individually to council for approval.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
