If, as you suggest, the previous law was unconstitutional, it's likely that the courts would have found it to be unconstitutional before the law was changed. In short, you don't have a case.
She sued, we went to mediation, then court. The judge ruled in our favor, now today the woman started sending emails saying very negative things about the employee who handled the lawsuit, and saying if we dont give her money she will sue again. Is there anything we can do? Can she sue again?

Generally, someone cannot sue for the same thing twice as long as the case was decided on its merits.... View More

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney, the short answer is that it usually depends on the terms of the retainer or agreement. Good luck
