Brooke E. Harris, an attorney, appealed from a probate court judgment that partially denied her application for attorney's compensation and reimbursement for real estate tax payments from the Estate of Gary Tauvar. Harris argued the Estate was bound by a contingent fee contract signed by the personal representative in his individual capacity, that the awarded compensation was inadequate, and that the firm was entitled to reimbursement for advanced real estate taxes. The appellate court affirmed the probate court's judgment, holding that the Estate was not bound by the contract without court approval, the compensation was within the probate court's discretion, and the tax payment was not a reimbursable expense without a court order for the personal representative to take charge of the property.
