Law.Com reports on this Venable Legal malpractice case:

"In 2004, Venable partner Stefan Tucker’s former client Alan Weinberger sued him for malpractice. The claim stemmed from a prior suit between Weinberger and another of Tucker’s ex-clients, Lev Volftsun. After years of this messy legal spat, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that Weinberger had no case late last month. But it seems Tucker hasn’t shaken his ex-client just yet: Weinberger has confirmed plans to file a motion this week for a new hearing before the entire court.

Tucker first introduced his two clients in 2000. Weinberger needed investors for his company TechNet, so Tucker helped Volftsun negotiate an agreement to loan TechNet $250,000 and to become a company board member. In 2001, Weinberger created a holding company into which he merged TechNet and another company, ASCII. Volftsun sought repayment of the loan. The company did not repay him, and Volftsun consequently sued in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Weinberger appealed in September, only to have the lower court’s decision affirmed by a three-judge panel on Dec. 20, but that decision clearly has not discouraged him. "
