A California couple (Cs) hired a lawyer (L) to recover from an insurance company of what appears to be a home owner’s claim. That was in 2006. Recently Cs discovered that L had been disbarred for lying to his clients by telling a client that an appeal was pending and then providing her with forged court papers when she expressed doubts. The Cs lost several thousand dollars in fees paid though one wonders if they lost anything in the insurance case, since it involved asbestos removal. What is the lesson to be learned here? How’about this one: Many things cannot be done quickly, especially in the law. However, nothing takes forever, even in the law.
