Dikeman v. Mary A. Stearns, PC, 253 Ga. App. 646, 560 S.E.2d 115 (2002).

Since the client didn't want to pay their legal fees, they tried to argue that this was a RICO violation. The law firm was overbillingall of their clients, and they tried to compel disclosure of other clients' bills.

What made the client think that this was really going on?

Without access to other clients' bills (or at least complaints of other clients), how would they know?

What would have been the more straightforward argument to make?

Can we identify any recommendations that would help future law firms out, in response to this type of issue?
