Andrews Kurth is the defendant in a $50 million legal malpractice suit that began on June 9 with voir dire in 189th District Judge Bill Burke’s court in Houston. The lawsuit involves a former client that is unhappy about the Houston-based firm’s representation of one of imprisoned financier R. Allen Stanford’s companies.
Thomas Ajamie, of Ajamie LLP of Houston, who represents legal-mal plaintiff Walton Houston Galleria Office, said Andrews Kurth “sided” with Stanford Group Holdings against Walton in a dispute, while representing both.
