A bankrupt Florida business has sued Wolf Block for malpractice, alleging the firm failed to advise it that the company’s plans to build multimillion-dollar homes on a West Virginia property it bought would be stifled by the fact that others owned the subsurface mineral rights.
In Dutch Run-Mays Draft v. Wolf Block, Dutch Run is suing defunct Wolf Block in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas regarding the work former real estate partner Henry Miller did in acquiring the title to the West Virginia property on behalf of Dutch Run. Miller, who joined Cozen O’Connor after Wolf Block dissolved in 2009, died in February 2010.
