A Manhattan attorney claims he worked with a San Diego law firm to secure a settlement in a false advertising, class-action case against Walmart, only for his California counterpart to “cheat” him of more than $237,000 in legal fees.

Attorney Andrew P. Saulitis of Manhattan filed the civil action on behalf of Canova Law Office LLC of New York City against The Law Office of Ronald A. Marron, APLC, on Sunday in U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York.
