Arizona lender Stillwell Madison claims that its dispute with prominent Los Angeles plaintiffs lawyer Thomas Girardi should play out in court rather than arbitration.
Stillwell Madison, represented by counsel at DLA Piper, sued Girardi, his law firm Girard Keese, and his wife, Real Housewives of Beverley Hills cast member Erika Jayne, in Arizona federal court in May claiming that the lender had been fraudulently misled to grant a forbearance of $3,454,804 on a loan of more than $5 million to the law firm.
