A Bryan law firm has sued a former client, the former client’s new attorney and his firm, seeking to recover a contingency fee from the client for a month of work it put into a case.

The original petition in Stark v. Izaguirre, filed in Travis County district court, said that Jennifer Izaguirre, a resident of Kyle, hired the Daniel Stark law firm and signed a contingency fee contract on Jan. 7, 2013. She assigned a 38.33 percent interest in her recovery to the firm. On Feb. 6, 2013, Izaguirre terminated the agreement, and the firm notified her it “would maintain a lien against any recovery.”
