Circuit Backs Insurers' Refusal to Pay Counsel Fees
In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the Army Corps of Engineers raised a potentially disastrous question for a maritime terminal operator called Lafarge North America. An enormous barge that should have been moored at a Lafarge terminal had been found bumping up against a house on the land side of the Mississippi River levee that protected New Orleans's Ninth Ward. An Army Corps spokesperson told The Wall Street Journal that it was possible the barge had caused a breach in the levee, resulting in the flooding that devastated that area of the city. Bad enough, but the company ran into even more trouble when it retained Holland & Knight, Goddwin Procter and a third firm against the wishes of its insurer.Foreclosure program stalls action

At the very least, they are creating new law firm marketing opportunities. A perfect example is New Orleans-based McGlinchey Stafford, which created a blog on the federal Class Action Fairness Act of 2005 to establish itself as an authority on this field of law. As search engines picked up postings to the blog, they multiplied its impact.Trending Stories
