A trio of lawyers seeking more than $245,000 from a fellow attorney have dropped the lawsuit they filed earlier this year accusing YES Law Group partner Yehuda Smolar and his firm of using a phony line of credit and “loan fee” with a co-defendant to avoid paying the eight-year-old debt.
But onetime law partners Lance Cooper, Andrew Jones and Scott Cooper left the door open for a new action, dismissing the suit they filed against Smolar and his firm in Fulton County Superior Court without prejudice. At the same time, they also dismissed with prejudice co-defendant Johnson management Group, which they had accused of conspiring with Smolar to cook up a $300,000 loan accompanied by a “loan fee” of more than $600,000 to enable Smolar to claim he had no money to pay his creditors.
