A plaintiff has sued the firm that represented him in a divorce, among others, alleging that the defendants failed to respond adequately to a post-divorce decree summary judgment motion and as a result a $99,000 judgment was entered against him. Plaintiff Steven Lewis also alleges the defendants Bailey & Galyen, partner R. Keith Spencer, and Phillip Galyen PC neglected to notify him of that judgment, which resulted in three sanctions orders entered against Lewis. According to the petition, Bailey & Galyen and Phillip Galyen PC sometimes are referred to collectively as the “Firm.”
In his Oct. 5 petition in Lewis v. Bailey & Galyen, et al., Lewis alleges that in 2003 he retained Bailey & Galyen and one of its attorneys to represent him in protracted divorce proceedings. A divorce decree was entered in 2006, but in 2008, Lewis’ ex-wife filed an action to enforce the divorce decree, Lewis alleges in his petition.
