EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve a Retention Agreement for legal services on an "as
needed" basis with the law firm of Grant Fridkin Pearson Athan & Crown, P.A.
OBJECTIVE: To obtain approval of a Retention Agreement with Grant Fridkin Pearson Athan
& Crown, P,A., to provide outside legal services on an "as needed" basis.
CONSIDERATIONS: Attached for the Board's review and approval is a Retention Agreement
with the law firm of Grant Fridkin Pearson Athan & Crown, P.A. ("Grant Fridkin"), which is a
local Naples law firm currently being used by the County to defend against a pending contract
dispute filed in Collier County. This request seeks approval of the Retention Agreement so that
the County may retain Grant Fridkin on an as-needed basis to provide representation on other
matters where their specialized legal services may be of assistance,
.-"'-
The attached Retention Agreement does not address any specific project or assignment but rather
sets forth the criteria under which payment will be made when services are requested, Although
this firm has a wide array of legal expertise, the County generally requests services on an as,
needed basis in the area of construction law, contract disputes, employment disputes, and
litigation, including related administrative, executive, and judicial hearings, appeals, and
negotiations. The rates charged by this firm varies, as with any law finn, depending upon the
attorney working on the matter and the other resources that are necessary to provide the County
with the services it requests. The proposed agreement also provides for reimbursement of actual
out-of-pocket expenses to make clear that lodging and traveling expenses are to be paid in
accordance with Section 112.061, Florida Statutes. It is not anticipated, however, that such
expenses are likely to be incurred as this law firm is a local Naples firm. [n an attempt to make
the outside counsel retention agreements more unifonn, the proposed Retention Agreement is
substantially identical to others recently approved by the Board of County Commissioners.
FISCAL IMPACT: The approval and execution of the proposed Retention Agreement has no
fiscal impact in and of itself, but there will be a fiscal impact in accordance with the temlS and
conditions of such contracts, upon the County's request for legal services.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: None
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board approve and authorize the Chaimlan to execute the
attached Retention Agreement with the Jaw firm of Grant Fridkin Pearson Athan & Crown, P,A.,
for specialized legal services requested on an as-needed basis,

quite untypical. They have ~ifdt8bly occuu.,J in a sbort period of Ii...... The matters involve
three of our shareboldera: Ridwd C. Otant, Jefliey D. Fridkin, aad a. Helen Alban. They are
explained below.
Smallwood LudacapiDs. IDe.
Smallwood 1.Imdsc8ping, Inc. and its sole shareholder, JOfnne ~m~llwood, w= elients of our
film aItbDu8h nor for gcnersl corpcnate matters CJIliOing. RatMr we bad periodically provided
colUllCI to Iuir on disputed matten. bl 2006 Ms. Smallwood foUDd a buyer for tho lIIICtI of !be
company. Heletl Athaa in our firm was cogaged t\l review, advise, and negotillte a letter of
intent, 1lSSCl88le Btllcc/'uOIlt aad handle the closing. Ms. SJD8l)wood claims that Ms. AtbaII failed
to lIlIcc steps to protClCt her from these losses and to guard agoolnot !be bvF clOlmll clown the
bll,;n~fS thus llepriviDg her of tbelc bellefits. She bas JUcd our fino. and Ms. AtbIIII.
.
Shortly after the sale WIllI c\oaefl Ms. Smallwood bwalllG embroiled in a diapute with the buyer
of tho. bllS!ness over her own performance and cllllms that she had mi&reln-..a...1Ilcd material
matters. .AJi a result the buyer ... ..,;lUItcd her continued ServiCCll and Iiquidatecl the bu,p,.,-o thus
deprivizig her of future compeosation and an eamoUt payment for the business. That dispute
resulted in litigation betweeII Ms. Smallwood and hlS\' lni~r. It was 5Cltied betwceu tbcm a Ww
months ago. Ms. Smallwood contends that Ms. Alban failed to take steps to protect her from
this. We dispute this. It is our belief tbet her lD!lses primarily resuItcd Loa! her OWD fallme of
pcdo.....nce UDdcr continuing Ijpu.."""ts she had with her buyer anell or miSlepRSClltations me
made to her buyer.
Ie out cise a ODD biadiDg court ordered arllittation was held in JUDC 200g. This is standard
procedure. Tbe PfOCClCdicgs w= c1isorPQi~ and thc arbitrator appcers to have becomc

denied the motion. AJ!. a ClllISeqUeIICC ourlltlOmey was not as we1I prepared for the arbitration as
he 'could or should have been. Ms. Smallwood's attomcy presc:ntcd an expert witneas who bad
ZDviowcd tho files and who testi5ed in somc detail why it was his opinion that Ms. Athan bad
failed to propcrly ~t MI. Smallwood. Our lIltl>mey did not rcfutetbil as well as it could
have been. The arbitrator rulad against us aod cctercd an awud of over S 1,000,000 against our

We and our COlmee1 belWve that it can be shown that thc bvF's action was taken, and was
petbaps justified, by our clieD.t's OWD action and the miSlqlrot(llltatioas sbe mMe. Wc also

Wo may have'some llXpOSW'e to the claim tbst we should have takeo 81llps to insure paytllCDt of
the unpaid IICCOunt payables, but those are in the S 1 SO,OOO nage.
EmplayJDeat CoIllnct DIspute
Tbil olietlt is a profelsioaal pmctice group. In 2007 It entered iDlo IICIOtiatiOlll with 1hreo
owner-lllIIIlIbeIa 10 witbhaw from the gtV1Ip. Rit:bard C. Grant acIl::d . ill COIIIIIei in drattiD&

clause in Olle of the documentsla drIlfted that has resulted in our c1lel1t baing sued . a ~t. It
did Dot 8lIOIIr&tcly state wbat was intellCled. The c1ieDt repnICII1atiVCll bad IlIDple opportllDity to
Ieviaw- it and note the problem before it was axecatcd. The cI1ent BCkaowledp that it sJwes
responsibility for the probletn. A suit filed by ODO of the withdrawing members has .~ently
n:sultlld in a judtpIlatlt apinst our cUm!. The hasis for the judll',-'ot is the claase in C(IICItion.
We have reacbed 1/9~.ent with the cUm! to sl:uIre notlOO.<l than fifty percent of any loss it
sustains.
.
Two other fonner members catered into similar contracts SOOll after the fint ODe. The client
handled tbDse itself; but \~ the 58IlIe set of dOCUlllClIIlI. It evllO ",ade some nlVisiODl to the
clause in question. We continue to represent this client and have its confidence.
CoDdoDlIDlum WIlTIIDly C.e
This client owned a resideDtiaI coDdominium unit which she had purchased from a developer.
She lllICOIIIItmed a serious blown inaulatiOll jnfestalioD that was as a -wt of COIIItIuction dcfem
and mpged Jaffrcy Fridkin la our firm to sue the developer for dlmages ""...... on the provisions
of 1bc Florida Condomlaiwn Act which mandate tbst IIlI colldomiaiUDIllllits sold include certIlin
statutoiy warranties that I developer and the contractor are de>""''lCi to provide. The appli4'&ble
Ilat\ltO dOes Dot provide for the recovery of attorney fees by the preval1in& parties.
The developer defellded the suit aggressively. ID its pleadings it (lemandad ~ feClIlf it
wen: the prmdlinll party. We did DOt move to strike this delf\smd, but we did file In mswcr that
dclIied CDlitlelllllllt to attomey feels. The purchase con1r8Ct for the unit conq,ined a provision that
the prevailing party in ID)' action "arisinll UDder" the contract wou1c1 be entitled to recover
attorne)'I' feels. The contract expressly dilc1aimed any wan;anties except those arising UIIder
statute. The lawsuit we filed expressly claimed to be brougbt solely UJlder the Klatllte, and did
ootlllention or rely UPOD the CODtra~
M the auit progressed the court ordered non bindillg mmdalory arbitration. The arbitrator Nled
8&"inst our client. As a result the client detllrtnined not to proceed with the cue and to dismip
it. Eb...t\ Oft the theory of the case. and the abseIIce of lIllllUtory attorney fees to the prevailing
party, Mr. Fridldn advised tho client that sbe would not be liable for the ck:vdoper's lIttomcys'
fees. We df.....isRd the 5lIit as deaired by the clicat, with hor decision to do 10 beillg in reliance
OD our lIdvlce that she would DOt bear tho burdoD of the developer's legal fees.

Developer l8IlIelI ad Claims
Our firm bas a subItmtiaI. practice involvina the provision of legal services to real estate
developers. ID the put two yeara, U the -' estste IDIIrket has deterionrted, buyers of property
under COl\$lnICtion have iucreuingly looked for ways to avoid clollng em coatraCts and ways in
which .to recover earnest money deposita. GeneraIly this invol yes trying III fiDd fiwJt with ~
coatent, jbrm, or subslmce of a Jea! eslate pun:Jwe 11&0' ',lel]\ or with the pwceas by which the
deveIopec has engaged in selling its product. A common method of finding relief cxista if the
developer bufailed to comply with the Interstate uwi Sales Pull Ol8cloo... e Act (ILSA). If
applicable ILSA requires either fcderaI reglslmtion or satisfying the requimnoltlJ of ODe of many
exemptious. Failure to comply with ILSA mlden aD coDtnlCtll voidable. We Iutve ODe cliCllt
who has sustaiIIcd some deposit ]OI5C8 becauae of ILSA iuues that exist with the doo.,..,""tB ...
