    Default What Should Your Law Firm's File Contain

    My question involves employment and labor law for the state of: Florida

    When it is returned to you by your law firm?

    My Florida overtime law firm (that I was under a contingency agreement with) recently dismissed me due to "behavioral issues". I was just sent my my file from their office. I was surprised that it only contained information from the Agency for Workforce Innovation (that oversees unemployment in Florida) and nothing in regards to what they have done on my case. They have handled my case since November of last year and it was about to go into lawsuit, so there was or should have been a lot of work done.

    Default Re: What Should Your Law Firm's File Contain

    You are free to inquire with the firm about whether any materials were removed or omitted from your file. It may be that they have retained some documents that they don't deem necessary to your continuing your case, whether pro bono or with another firm, based upon the fact that they have not been paid for that work. But you won't know until you ask them.
