Several law firms are again being sued alongside real estate development firm Bayrock and its associates in a lawsuit alleging a series of state tax frauds, according to a newly unsealed lawsuit in Manhattan Supreme Court.
The attorneys who filed the state court case, solo practitioners Frederick Oberlander and Richard Lerner, were co-counsel on a similar suit filed six years ago in federal court and in the meantime have faced intense scrutiny by federal court judges, including one who referred them to authorities for a criminal contempt investigation.
