After taking our case and barely walking us through the court process for which the decision was made to settle out of court, but had not yet determined the terms of the settlement, Mr. Kaugman disapeared. We heard nothing from him, or his office, after repeated attempts finally was able to catch a receptionist in the office who gave an 800 number for someone else where we've had to leave a message and have not yet heard back. It has been 3+ months of absolutely no updates. We've been informed that the other party is telling people this has all concluded and describes the terms of the settlement, now the concern is that it was sent to Mr. Kaufman with the usual terminology that objections be filed within 7days and he did not respond or allow us the opportunity to respond we are out of luck. This is just wrong. There are laws/rules about contacting clients and courts when attorneys leave. We heard nothing at all!
