What is a fair and customary charge for a lawyer forcing the sale of a house from a joint deed?

Is it customary for the lawyer to receive one-third of the monetary sale of the one partners’ half plus reimburse any out-of-pocket costs?

    Lawyers don’t force the sale of a home.

    They file the paperwork in court, and the judge makes that decision.

    They charge whatever fee they charge per hour…times how many hours they spend working on the case.

    However, the figure that you are speaking of…for it to be tied into the home’s value…is FREAKING INSANE.

    Sounds like someone is about to get ripped off.
