The trustee charged with recovering money for the now-defunct law firm of imprisoned ex-lawyer Marc S. Dreier filed a string of suits last week to recover money for the firm. The 12 actions filed in Southern District U.S. Bankruptcy Court come two years after Mr. Dreier was arrested for peddling $700 million in phony real estate and promissory notes.
