A Dallas businessman and former client of Dykema Cox Smith has sued the firm and one of its partners, alleging they botched the defense of an involuntary bankruptcy so badly that he lost a $1 million house — a property that should have been protected under Texas’ strong homestead exemption laws.
The petition filed in a Dallas County state district court recently by Odes Kim alleges that he hired Dykema member Mark Andrews to represent him after a judgment creditor from California placed Kim into involuntary bankruptcy.
