The bitter dispute between an investment banker and his ex-wife has consumed Hogan & Hartson's Robert Cave for nearly 12 years, driving his practice into the ground and leading him to withdraw from Hogan's partnership. Now, the woman's sons are suing Cave and Hogan for malpractice, alleging the firm pursued unnecessary legal action that drained their inheritance. The suit claims Cave developed a "crush" on Colleen Boland, noting that he had referred to her as the best friend he's ever had.

Hogan & Hartson partner Robert Cave was warned not to get involved.
The bitter dispute between a wealthy investment banker and his ex-wife had already chewed through several Washington lawyers by the time it came to him in 1997. Williams & Connolly litigator Brendan Sullivan Jr. called it a real mess, according to court documents. Cave’s colleague, J. Warren Gorrell Jr., who currently chairs Hogan, did not want the case to come into the firm.
