Ms. Chames represented Mr. DeMayo in a case involving child support and alimony. The contract that Mr. DeMayo signed to retain Ms. Chames included language that waived the homestead protection from forced sale provided in the Florida Constitution. Ms. Chames withdrew from the case several months later and the trial court entered a charging lien and final judgment in an amount in excess of $33,200. Mr. DeMayo appealed to the Third District Court of Appeal, which reversed the charging lien as applied to his house but affirmed in all other respects. The 3rd DCA cited past rulings by this Court finding a general waiver of the homestead protection unenforceable as far back as 1884. Ms. Chames and Mr. DeMayo have both sought review in this Court raising various issues.
