1Opinion of the Court

SILBERMAN, Judge.

In this nonfinal appeal in a dissolution of marriage proceeding, Steven E. Baker (the Husband) challenges the trial court’s order on a motion for temporary relief that requires him to contribute $7500 to the attorney’s fees of Angela R. Baker (the Wife). Because the Wife failed to present *77competent, substantial evidence as to the reasonableness of the amount of the attorney’s fees, we reverse the determination of the amount of fees and remand for further proceedings. We also remand the Wife’s motion for appellate attorney’s fees to the trial court for further proceedings.
