If an attorney's work is complete upon signing of a decree of distribution, and if so, how much work must be done by the attorney to complete the work before the attorney has to engage other counsel for the remaining 60% of his work?

If the attorney's work were ocnsidered to be complete upon signing of the decree of distribution, and if further proceedings were essential in order to translate the decree into tangible return in the hands of the client, the attorney's theory here would compel the client to be indebted to him for 40 percent and then engage him or other counsel at a cost of additional fees out of the remaining 60 percent. Such a result would be clearly inequitable. Dalzell v. State Bar, 6 Cal.2d 433, 57 P.2d 1300.
