Exercise 3

Goldberg, a minor, hired an attorney to sue Perlmuter for personal injuries. When the case was settled, the attorney asked for his fee. Goldberg, however, asked the court to hold that the contract with the lawyer was void because Goldberg was a minor when the contract was made. Is this request valid? (Goldberg v. Perlmutter, 308 Ill. App. 84)
