I sued my former lawyer, Steven Biss, for stealing $20,000 from me. He took a retainer knowing full well that he was never going to be able to file a lawsuit because he had no license in Ohio. He has a long track record of doing this and has had his license revoked several times.

I was busy with other matters and had not gotten around to filing it when I read that Mr. Biss had suffered a stroke. Perhaps it is karma (or the Greer Curse. The last two lawyers I sued ended up filing for bankruptcy. One is a felon now.).

How did I cross paths with this parasite? Well, Mr. Biss had successfully represented my loathsome former publicist in his own defamation case. I assumed he was legit. I was wrong.

Lessons learned: Check the local bar associations before hiring a new lawyer, especially if they are solo practice. Also, be very careful about what is stated in the retainer agreement.

Suing a disabled lawyer is something that few people know anything about. In my case, it was more unusual because Mr. Biss had no secretary or next of kin. His famous clients only learned about his stroke when he was AWOL for hearings and cases were dismissed.

This is what I had to learn on my own. The local court will reassign existing cases of a disabled or deceased lawyer to a Receiver. A Conservator is assigned to handle their personal matters. Malpractice insurance does not reimburse for disputes over legal fees. That means I will just be waiting in line to collect my money as the estate is divvied up.

I am suing pro se because it makes no financial sense to use my Ohio lawyer. The dollar amount is only $20,000.

I only post this story because other famous clients of Steve Biss might find it useful. Click here for the PDF of my Complaint.

Greer Wins Again

Well, I lost all of my Ohio cases in my effort to get my stolen $20,000 back from the crooked lawyer Steven Biss. However, I won the battle. It turns out that the Virginia Bar set up a special fund for victims of this guy. They awarded me my complete $20,000 refund. If I had known about this, I would not have wasted time in court.

Of note, it is absolutely scary what the Ohio Courts did. This guy was part of the corrupt Joe Biden DOJ (i.e., I suspect that they flipped him to sabotage his clients who were Trump supporters or anti-Pfizer-vaccine (Dr. Malone, General Flynn, me, etc)), so the Franklin County courts bent over backwards to not give me my money. The people I sued wittingly did not even appear in court, and yet the courts refused to give me a default judgment. I am really disappointed in the Ohio Supreme Court for not reversing these lower decisions. There is now an appeals court decision that makes it OK to act with hubris, not appear, and then not be slapped with the default judgment.
