Girardi Accused of Failing to Pay $2M or More to Families of 2018 Lion Air Crash Victims

I would be despondent right now if I wasn’t so furious. Do I really have to say this again? A client’s money is… NOT YOUR MONEY! No lawyer can borrow client money from the trust account, not even for ten seconds. It’s theft, even if it’s paid back. And it looks like this money is gone for good. These were the families of those who died in one of the Boeing crashes. Thomas Girardi was a pioneer and yes, a great lawyer. But not anymore, not if this is true. Sad, yes, but more than that, it’s infuriating.
