On two fronts, Becker & Poliakoff is fighting attorneys who left the troubled law firm. Defector Dan Rosenbaum is suing law firm shareholder Gary Poliakoff and a partnership that owns a Fort Lauderdale, Fla., building for a share of the property.

Rosenbaum and eight other Becker & Poliakoff attorneys left the firm Aug. 4 to open the West Palm Beach, Fla., office of Becker competitor Katzman Garfinkel.
