Cocoa Beach Pension Board Retains Legal Counsel with 25% Fee Reduction Offer
- Meeting Overview:
During the recent Cocoa Beach Pension Board meeting, members decided to maintain their relationship with the law firm Sugarman and Susan following the departure of attorney Pedro Herrera. David Robinson, a longstanding attorney with the firm, introduced himself and outlined a 25% fee reduction to ease the transition and build confidence in his services. The fee reduction will be in place for two years, allowing the board to evaluate Robinson’s performance while continuing to receive legal services.
The board expressed satisfaction with their current relationship with Sugarman and Susan, noting that past cases have been handled successfully. While Herrera’s departure gives the board the option to switch firms, Robinson stated the firm is eager to continue serving as legal counsel.
No direct contact from Herrera to the Pension Board was reported, which some board members interpreted as simplifying their decision to stay with Sugarman and Susan. The board ultimately voted to continue their engagement with the firm, with Robinson present to address any questions or concerns. The next meeting is scheduled for May 5th at 3 p.m., where Robinson will attend.
