A Philadelphia jury has awarded a $2.5 million verdict to a man who alleged he was incorrectly portrayed by attorneys from Lentz, Cantor & Massey as being pertinent to a case surrounding the misuse of a family's assets through power of attorney.

Following a four-week trial, the jury returned the lump sum verdict Thursday in favor of Robert J. Kappe after two hours of deliberation in Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge George W. Overton's courtroom.
