In re the Guardianship of Decker

Court of Appeals of Washington

Decided June 16, 2015No. 45465-3-IIPublishedCited by 9 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtWorswick, J.

¶1 Daniel Quick, former attorney for Keiko Decker, the incapacitated person in this adult guardianship case, appeals the trial court’s order limiting Quick’s attorney fees and disgorging fees already paid to him. He argues that the trial court erred by (1) entering orders reducing Quick’s fees without authority to do so, or alternatively by (2) reducing Quick’s fees without engaging in the proper analysis. Decker’s guardian, Maurice Laufer, requests attorney fees on appeal under RAP 18.1 and RCW 11.96A.150. We affirm the trial court’s orders and grant Laufer his requested attorney fees.
