For Ajamie LLP, a Houston law firm with 11 attorneys, taking on banks with billion-dollar war chests is becoming a booming business.
This ruling was used by a lawyer on another case, Ohio-based Alan Rosca, to secure a $3 million judgment against Morgan Stanley on March 25.
He said he has been contacted by advisors hailing from "really any financial firm that offers deferred compensation to financial advisors."
During that suit, Ajamie was contacted by Matt Shafer, the lead plaintiff in the Morgan Stanley case.
The Morgan Stanley suit inspired Kelly Milligan, now the named plaintiff in the Merrill Lynch class action, to reach out.
