CAROLE FEIL, Plaintiff-Appellant,

against

36B EAST PARK AVE. CORP., Defendant, VINCENT W. GRIFFO, Defendant-Respondent, TED MILAN & ROBERT MURPHY, Defendants.

Plaintiff appeals from an order of the Civil Court, New York County, entered April 11, 2003 after a hearing (Stuart Cohen, J.H.O.) limiting plaintiff's recovery for attorneys' fees to the principal sum of $3,000.

PER CURIAM:

Order entered April 11, 2003 (Stuart Cohen, J.H.O.) modified by increasing plaintiff's recovery of attorneys' fees to the sum of $6,000; as modified, order affirmed, without costs. [*2]

Considering the results achieved and the nature and extent of the services rendered (see Matter of Jordan v Freedman, 40 AD2d 656 [1972]), including extensive settlement negotiations and the commencement of supplementary proceedings, we modify the fee award to the extent indicated.

This constitutes the decision and order of the court.
