MALPRACTICE LAWSUIT: Justice Delayed, Denied

Woman sues lawyer who vanished after settling case

Tonya'n LaBeaux has lost faith in the Nevada justice system.

Her lawyer is charged with forging documents that ended her $1.5 million wrongful death lawsuit against a Washoe County doctor and making off with the measly settlement he negotiated without her permission. So far, the courts have rebuffed her attempts to resurrect the case against the doctor.

Now LaBeaux, a California resident, is going after that attorney, Lawrence Davidson, who is charged with keeping the $187,500 settlement he negotiated.

But there is one snag in her last-resort effort to receive some compensation for her father's 1999 death: Davidson has vanished.

Details here from the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
