What are the procedures for suing a lawyer for breech of retainer?

  • Same as the procedures for suing anyone for breach of any contract - they vary by jurisdiction, but you should be able to find the filing requirements on the website of your local county court. Cheers! BD2412 T 15:00, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
What recourse exists for retirees, who have accepted  a corporation's enhanced benefit laden early retirement offer, when the corporation splits off a solely independant corporation assigned these retirees to the newly created corporation the new corporation then sets about to eliminate the promised benefits.

[edit] Corporation pension health care promised benefits denied

In an effort to reduce its work force a corporation makes a special early retirement offer. This offer is laden with benefits to attract as many early retirement candidates as possible. The benefits are promised for the life time of the retirees...in writing. This corporation later splits off a new corporation solely independant and assigns these retirees to the new corporation's employee pension health care plan. The retirees earned pension health care benefits are funded from an allocation 2/3rds of a multi billion dollar existing pension plan. The new corporation citing language from their newly created employee pension health care plan eliminates the promised benefits made to the former corporation's retirees. Is there any recourse for these retirees?

[edit] Why?

The thing I haven't seen explicated anywhere is why anyone would want to do this. Just to be less a jerk by saying, "Yeah, you're going to have to sue me anyway; might as well be now,"? It is a breach of contract, isn't it? The nonbreaching party would still want to sue, wouldn't it? -Dan 03:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
