Before GUIDRY, J., and HOOD, and MARCANTEL, JJ. Pro Tem.


WARREN E. HOOD, Judge Pro Tem.

This appeal arises out of a dispute over a verbal contract entered into between Sam Rini, a contractor, and Higgins and Starling, a law firm partnership and its members, George L. Higgins, III and Richard E. Starling, Jr., who were interested in remodeling a building to use as their law offices. The parties agreed that the work would be done on a cost-plus basis—the cost of the labor and materials plus twelve percent.
