I had gone through a bitter divorce that still had issues after the fact. I noticed on the later bills that my attorney sent to me that my ex wife's attorney "Smith" was listed on the letter head of my attorney's firm as a partner. The bill was itemized with my attorney consulting with attorney "Smith" after he had joined the firm and I was charged a hefty sum for that.
Can opposing council be partners in the same firm even at the tail end of a case?
