Q: In Florida, is a Chapter 7 BK client legally entitled to get a copy of their file from their BK attorney?
A:
It is my practice to provide my client with a digital copy of everything we produce and everything we receive. If he cannot receive digital cxopies, then they are mailed in hard copy.
I cannot understand why there is an issue with providing you copies, but if it persists, go to the clerk's office and they can assist you for 10 cents a page
Bruce Alexander Minnick and Tim Akpinar agree with this answer
A: Yes. You can also go to pacer.gov, register for an account and then get it yourself electronically on line
Bruce Alexander Minnick agrees with this answer
A: I think so. Call the Florida Bar if the lawyer refuses to provide you a copy. Their number is: (850)561-5600.
