Florida attorneys were hired to file against the banks in the interstate law offices in Florida. The clients I represented in Indiana had all cases filed. The clients in Florida that were to be taken care of by Florida attorneys - and who were PAID well to do so - should be at fault for not pursuing any lawsuits there. I'm not aware of clients' cases that were filed and those which were not. I closed the office in Florida in November when I could not find an attorney that took their position seriously nor could I hire another Florida attorney as the FL b*r has created problems with hiring attorneys. In addition, the entire firm had a online system that is also used in my Indiana office, where clients could access ALL documents 24/7. All communication was to take place through such system. During audits it appeared that the Florida attorneys failed to communicate through such client relationship manager software, and communication may have been less than what was promised. As for knowledge, I taught over 300 attorneys how to proceed against the banks - and I taught the Florida attorneys hired to represent the firm's clients how to proceed against the banks. Several attorneys attended on numerous occasions because of my knowledge. There were many successes. I personally apologize for any problems with the Florida office, but I could not be in control there - the managing Florida attorney was in control and I trusted the wrong persons to care for the clients.
