A Richmond attorney who won more than $58,000 from a client in a fee dispute was not as lucky in a recent appellate ruling.

Although Richmond lawyer Michael Orsak’s firm held on to its award of $31,450 in damages and $27,000 in attorney fees, the client has won a second chance to argue a breach-of-fiduciary-duty counterclaim to try to force Orsak to forfeit all of the fees.
