I have a client that has not paid my invoices for legal services, but wants me to release his permanent file to him. I'm sure other attorneys have had this problem before. I believe that the attorney work product is mine, but the executed client signed documents are the client's. The problem is that if I release the file to the client, then the client will never pay me for my services. I'm happy to get rid of the client, but i just want to get paid. Any recommendations?
