Fla. Stat. § 723.001 et seq. § 723.068
Attorney’s fees.
Operative Text
Except as provided in s. 723.037, in any proceeding between private parties to enforce provisions of this chapter, the prevailing party is entitled to a reasonable attorney’s fee.
Florida Statute § 723.068 establishes a fee-shifting rule in private legal proceedings brought to enforce the state's mobile home park law. When one side prevails in such a case, that winning party is generally entitled to recover a reasonable attorney's fee from the losing side. This rule applies broadly to disputes between private parties under the chapter, with the exception of proceedings governed by § 723.037.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Fla. Stat. § 723.068, a park owner who prevails in a private enforcement action brought under Florida's mobile home park law may be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees from the opposing party. Compliant operators typically keep thorough documentation of all park rules, notices, and communications so that their legal position is well-supported if litigation arises. Because fee-shifting runs both ways, the same rule that may benefit a prevailing landlord can also require payment of a tenant's fees if the landlord does not prevail.

Fla. Stat. § 723.068 gives mobile home park residents who prevail in a private enforcement action under Florida's mobile home park law the right to seek reasonable attorney's fees from the opposing party. This two-way fee-shifting provision can make it more practical for residents to pursue valid claims, since a successful outcome may offset legal costs. Tenants who believe their rights under the chapter have been violated can explore their options by contacting a tenant-rights organization or a legal aid office familiar with Florida mobile home park law.
