A former Big Law attorney in Houston has sued Gray Reed & McGraw and Houston senior counsel Jack Emmott III, alleging they failed to tell him about a last-minute change in his divorce documents, costing him hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Bradley Raffle, an environmental lawyer who formerly practiced law in Houston at Baker Botts and Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, is seeking up to $1 million in damages from Gray Reed and Emmott in a suit filed on Friday in State District Court in Harris County.
Raffle alleged in the petition that the last-minute change to the document he signed in 2012 inflated the amount he was required to pay his ex-wife in 2018 by nearly $200,000. He alleged that Emmott and his firm failed to advise him that they changed his divorce agreement.
