Appellate Court of Illinois June 26, 1967, Gen. 10,838 (Hofing v. Willis)

HOFFMAN, J.

This appeal is brought to reverse an order fixing attorney’s fees.

Mr. C. G. Colburn is a licensed attorney who has engaged in the general practice of the law in the city of Virginia since 1932. In 1961 he was contacted by 21 persons, ultimately the plaintiffs in the original cause, to determine what rights, if any, they possessed in 200 acres of farmland.
