ON CONFESSION OF ERROR
HENDON, J. The appellee, Life Medical Center Corp., a/a/o Alma A. Guevara

United Automobile Insurance Company v. Professional Medical Group,
Inc., 318 So. 3d 1261 (Fla. 3d DCA 2021), in which this Court held that the
trial court reversibly erred by awarding attorney’s fees without conducting
an evidentiary hearing on the reasonableness of attorney’s fees. Id. at
1262. Accordingly, we reverse the order under review and remand for an
evidentiary hearing.
Reversed and remanded.
