The Curious Procedure of Retaxing Costs
Meyer, Suozzi, English & Klein partner Michael J. Antongiovanni writes: As the unfortunate litigant aggrieved by a large and improper disbursement soon discovers, what is often viewed as a perfunctory procedure rounding out the end of a lawsuit can quickly turn into a costly and time-consuming dispute in and of itself. At the end of the day, navigating a retaxation may end up costing more in attorney fees than the challenged disbursement itself.Greenberg Traurig Drawn Into Estate Case
Greenberg Traurig has become enmeshed in a bitter family feud. Estranged sisters Linda J. Spector and Barbara Berlin were beneficiaries of a trust created by their mother. Shortly after her mother's death, Spector sought to have her then-fianc�, Greenberg partner Albert Jacobs, appointed co-trustee. But a Manhattan appellate court sided with attorney Joel Sankel, the successor designated in trust, who had argued that Spector and Jacobs might be seeking control of the trust to effectively disinherit Berlin.Court TV Goes to Atlanta for Socialite Murder Trial

Finnegan Struggles With Growing Pains
Until recently, the intellectual property firm Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner was the epitome of the old guard, with an all-partners-are-equal mentality that can still be found at firms like Covington & Burling, Arnold & Porter and a few large New York firms.
