John Brendel and Brendel Law Offices appeal from an order requiring distribution of 80% of attorney’s fees earned in a personal injury action to Larraine McNamara-McGraw, S.C. Brendel argues that claim preclusion prevents relitigation of the contractual right to a portion of the fees following an arbitrator’s decision on the relevant fee agreement and that the evidence does not support the trial court’s findings.
We affirm the order of the trial court.
This opinion will not be published.
Dist II, Racine County, Barry, J., Per Curiam
Attorneys:
For Appellant: James S. Smith, Brookfield; John K. Brendel, Brookfield
