RUCKER, Judge.

The law firm of Stewart & Irwin appeals the trial court's order requiring it to pay into the Clerk of the court proceeds from a settlement negotiated on behalf of a former client. We address the following rephrased issues: 1) did the trial court have personal jurisdiction over the law firm, and 2) where an attorney asserts a retaining lien over funds in his possession, may the trial court order the funds deposited with the Clerk of the court.
