Newsflash:  like solos, even large firm attorneys can file complaints in the wrong place, miss the statute of limitations and conceal the mistake – as shown in this article,  Jury Awards Billy Blanks $15 Million in Legal Malpractice Suit (4/2/05).  But it takes an extra special large firm to wind up liable not just for $20 million in compensatory damages but  $15 million for punitives as well.

I wonder what the legal fees were from the Shaw firm for representing Billy. I love that they take a hit for 10’s of millions for just 10’s of thousands in legal fees. Great Decision.
