Former Clients Of Suspended Lawyer Bruce Jacobs Accuse Him Of Pressuring Them To Pay Him Exorbitant Fees As An Expert Witness
It appears suspended lawyer Bruce Jacobs’ ballyhooed foray into flipping distressed properties isn’t panning out. Jacobs’ former foreclosure clients are alleging that he is aggressively pressuring them to hire him as an Expert Witness on their on going foreclosure case.
Former clients also claim the suspended lawyer is also pressuring them for advance payments because he claims to be in a dire financial situation.
One former client is now working with Jacobs associate, Miami attorney David Winker. The client believes Jacobs is also pressuring Winker to hire him as an expert on cases involving his former clients.
Jacobs Gets A Job With Property Onion After Florida Suspends His Law License
Jacobs took a job as a Director of Business Development with Property Onion last year after the Florida Bar suspended Jacobs’ law license in June 2023.
Property Onion is operated by real estate investor Tony Stern. Stern is a long standing fixture in the Florida distressed property market. Yes, distressed properties as in buying foreclosures, delinquent tax liens and HOA liens. The Boca Raton based investor then leverages his positions to take title to the property and kick people out of their homes.
Jacobs even promoted home made Facebook videos he and Stern did promoting Jacobs new gig as Director of Business Development for Stern. Will he be soliciting former clients for Property Onion? Of course, that remains to be seen.
The Florida Supreme Court suspended Jacobs from practicing law for 90 days in June. The justices apparently didn’t appreciate his buffoonish behavior in front of the judge of the 3rd DCA.
Jacobs also liked filing wackadoodle filings with the trial courts in Florida. These crazy filings also didn’t help his case with the Florida Bar.
Jacobs’ suspension was up in September. However, it appears he has made no attempt to re-instate his license.
