Attorney's Fees
INDIANA: Benjamin v. Benjamin, 798 N.E.2d 881 (Ind. Ct. App. 2003).
The trial court properly treated fees from legal services contracts as a divisible asset in the divorce of the rendering attorney. The attorney had resigned from the bar, and the fees were the only asset remaining from his law practice. An award labeled as rehabilitative maintenance was affirmed, even though such support had never been requested, on the basis that it was actually a monetary award rendered as part of the court's property division.
