NIGGER, the firm will no longer exist.

You can't pass any controlling interest to a non-Attorney.

The clients will take their cases to whatever Attorney solicits them the hardest.

The grieving family will be left with whatever insurance policy the individual Bros had available.

i assume this means there's other partners, kind of like chandler's 0.0001% stake.

if cslg died, what happens to his firm? does chandler just get to swallow up everything and all proceeds from ongoing cases and all goodwill etc? or does cslg's estate have a claim?

Everything goes to the surviving lolyer. I would think the family would have a claim to business assets that don't require a lol-degree.

As far as the payouts from cases that haven't settled yet. . .? Who knows.

Depending on how HAWT the widow is, maybe the surviving Partner is entitled to her as well.

It's not a tontine, Chandler might have the right to pay FMV for the outstanding interests.

If the partnership documents are done well the firm will survive without much fuss. Total shitshow if done poorly.

It’s actually pretty interesting. In the scenario where a partner dies, the firm will purchase life insurance that pays out enough to buy the interest from the widow, so cash flow is not affected.

Probably a provision requiring her to sell it back to the firm at FMV. And if it's only a minority stake then it's less valuable.

Given the uncertain nature of the valuation and the contingencies of the caseload, do you structure some sort of installment sale? Does that risk violating the rules if it starts to look too much like equity?

Apparently there is a statute that governs this - RUPA. The partner would be disassociated upon death and the business has to manditorily buy her out.

News reports suggest that Kurt's wife Tara perished in the crash, but the others are not known. Presumably 2 pilots, Tara, and 4 others.

milfy wife and her girlfriends died on their way to paris

turns out she was also an attorney and married to the PI dood who owned the firm

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15496999/bangor-airport-plane-crash-victim-tata-arnold-husband-kurt.html

The wife of a prominent lawyer was one of six killed in a horror private jet crash on a snowy airport runway.

Tara Arnold, 46, wife of personal injury attorney Kurt Arnold, died along with several of her friends on a girls' trip to Paris.

The Bombardier Challenger 650 business jet went down during takeoff from Bangor International Airport in Maine about 7.45pm on Sunday.

Dramatic footage showed the burning wreckage of the plane upside-down on the runway. Flight data showed it veered right during takeoff and flipped at 175mph.

The FAA earlier on Monday incorrectly said there were eight people on board including one crew member who survived.

Tara, a commercial lawyer with decades of experience, worked at her husband's law firm, Arnold & Itkin, since it was established in 2005.

She and Kurt live in an $11 million mansion in Houston with their two children, Jaxon and Isla.

The top Houston firm, to which the downed plane was registered, is known for defending undocumented migrants.

Tara, a commercial lawyer with decades of experience, worked at her husband's law firm, Arnold & Itkin, since it was established in 2005

The Bombardier Challenger 650 business jet went down during takeoff from Bangor International Airport in Maine about 7.45pm on Sunday, killing six people on board

A page talking up the firm's expertise in aviation accident litigation was quietly removed from its website after the crash.

Tara and her friends flew in from Houston on Sunday, landing at 6.09pm, for refueling and ice removal before heading across the Atlantic Ocean.

She earned her law degree from Tulane University in Louisiana, near the small town in Sabine Parish where she grew up.

Inspired by her mother, a personal injury attorney for victims of crime, she wrote on her company profile that she wanted to be a lawyer from a young age.

'When someone hires a lawyer to pursue a claim or file a lawsuit, it represents years of a person's life, their family's future, and the power to make a living for the rest of his or her life. It's my business to protect those things,' she wrote.

Tara graduated magna cum laude and began her career at the Houston office of a large New York City law firm, specializing in mergers and acquisitions.

While in Houston she met Kurt, and joined his firm.

While in Houston she met Kurt, with whom she has two children, Jaxon and Isla, and joined his firm

Her company profile described how she was passionate about helping victims of accidents on offshore oil platforms.

'During her free time, Tara loves to travel to new places and enjoys being active outdoors,' her bio read.

Tara's mother Karen and brother Sam declined to comment when contacted by the Daily Mail.

The Arnolds were noted philanthropists, particularly to Kurt's alma mater the University of Texas. They along with Jason and his wife Kisha have donated more than $40 million to the university's athletics programs.

Harris County Precinct Four Commissioner Lesley Briones paid tribute to Tara, with whom she was a close friend along with Kurt.

'My heart hurts for them and their children and their families. I worked at Arnold & Itkin for a time and so I know them well,' she said.

'This is just a tragedy and in particular Tara, she is just a phenomenal person, a bold leader and somebody who had a heart of service.'

Audio from the aircraft's radio recording, heard by the Daily Mail, included a voice saying 'let there be light' minutes before the crash.

It was unclear whether the eerie line was spoken by one of the pilots or an air-traffic controller, or what they were referring to.

They may have been commenting on how Bangor's Runway 33 went from pitch-black to brightly lit after the runway lighting was switched on.

Doorcam video showed a loud bang when the plane crashed but did not capture the plane itself.

Other radio chatter included the pilots and air traffic control discussing low visibility in the winter storm and removing ice from the plane before takeoff.

Less than two minutes after the tower cleared the plane for takeoff, they shouted, 'All traffic is stopped on the field! All traffic is stopped on the field!'

Minutes later, another controller said: 'Aircraft upside down. We have a passenger aircraft upside down.'

A witness claimed the plane lifted off the runway but then crashed back onto it and 'exploded'.

Photos showed the destroyed aircraft smashed and flipped over on the runway with black smoke filling the air.

The temperature was just 1F at the time of the crash - well below freezing - and Bangor had six to eight inches of snow on Sunday.

Visibility was poor due to the storm that's pummeling America, which brought heavy snowfall

The Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the crash.

There has been widespread travel chaos across the US due to Winter Storm Fern, with 11,000 flights canceled.

FAA weather cameras captured the clouded conditions at the airport around the time of the crash.

A winter storm warning went into effect in Maine at 7pm and will remain until 3am on Tuesday.

Forecasters have described the storm as catastrophic, as at least 24 states have declared a state of emergency.

Heavy snow and dangerous ice have hit 34 states across the South, Midwest and Northeast.

it's top tier business networking, access to government (gov knows that bigstate uni donors need regulatory and tax breaks), and obviously the only way guys at a certain age will still fuck prime sorority girls.

buddy of mine is coo of a large, privately held company. they sponsor nascar and each race they get like 100 people in, it's a huge bash, etc. i'm certain the company gets marketing and sales value that exceeds the 15 mil/year sponsorship

one of the lp's in a fund i'm putting together is a 1b+ family office for a car dealership owner. this guy's biggest problem is what to do with all the money he's swimming in. donating to a now natl champ football team is a rounding error in his books. i can't even imagine how much pussy he was balls deep in miami last week

put it this way, for normal people, it's 'why would you spend 10k on a rolex, it just tells time'? for people with this kind of money, nil $ is just like a rolex to them, it's a flex.

how often do you think that's the case? i think these firms often go up against BIGSHITDEFENSELAW rather than biglaw. insurers have "panel counsel" they work with, and because the rates they pay are SPS and they're just a PITA to deal with, most biglaw firms don't deal with them.

i'm sure there are some massive cases where the employer says fuck the insurer and hires biglaw, but i dunno how often that would be.

unless you meant WEMED when you said biglaw, which that firm is not.

You’re right, it’s not often and not the norm, but BigLaw does do this kind of thing.

They get involved in multiparty litigation all the time and sometimes there’s a BIGLAW firm, but this is not really a BIGLAW space, most defense lawyers they deal with are going to be in smaller defense firms, mid law maybe, but specialist ID firms. This is the nature of the work. I’m not saying these cases aren’t highly sophisticated or complicated. I am saying BIGLAW isn’t involved because they are off doing M&A and other bullshit.
