Louis Robles, a once-prominent Florida plaintiffs attorney, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to 41 federal counts of mail fraud and misappropriating $13.5 million in settlements from asbestos clients.

More than 7,000 asbestos clients, many of them old, poor and sick, were victims of Robles' greed, prosecutors say.
