In a fee dispute involving a Philadelphia lawyer it dismissed in 2012, Offit Kurman has been allowed to file certain information regarding the firm under seal, but was not granted the blanket seal on discovery materials it sought. The firm is facing allegations that it failed to comply with its promise to pay origination fees to an attorney after he left the firm.

Attorney Kevon Glickman filed a lawsuit against Offit Kurman earlier this year in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas alleging conversion and breach of contract, among other claims.
