THE COCHRAN FIRM apparently defrauds other law firms as well as its clients and some of its partners. See an excerpt of an article in New York Law Journal, dated October 29, 2012:
Two
prominent civil rights firms in New York are accused by a three-lawyer
Washington, D.C., firm of cheating it out of a significant fee as part
of a $3.75 million settlement in a wrongful death case. Catalano
& Plache claims that [Cochran] Neufeld Scheck & Brustin
and Emery Celli Brinckerhoff & Abady submitted court documents
on settlement terms without naming Catalano as a participating firm.
"The
defendants engaged in a pattern of conduct to defraud and deceive
plaintiff," Catalano argues in the Manhattan Supreme Court suit,
Law Offices of Catalano & Plache v. Brustin, 157248/2012. "Defendants are scheming and attempting to avoid their legal, moral and ethical obligations."
The
complaint said Cochran Neufeld & Scheck, a predecessor firm to
Neufeld Scheck, agreed to jointly represent Emil Mann's estate in a New
Jersey court. (See the full article in New York Law Journal)

One might wonder if The Cochran Firm also cheated its client, Mann's son, in the wrongful death civil action.
(This article has eighteen(18) links.) Emil Mann was a member of the
Ramapough Mountain Indians. He was shot and killed by New Jersey Park
Police Officer Chad Walder in April 2006 in Mahwah, N.J. The Cochran
Firm showed The Ramapough People no mercy years later when it mishandled
the Ramapough's lawsuit against Ford for toxic waste dumping on the
Ramapough's land, causing sickness, deaths, and pollution. The unethical
lawyers settled the Ramapough's civil action for a mere $12.5million
although the lawsuit was valued at $3billion. The CoIntelPro lawyers
also neglected to file suit against the Environment Protection Agency
(EPA) for its part in the environmental pollution that lasted over 40
years, with Ford continually dumping paint sludge on the Ramapough's
property. The EPA issued an order to Ford in 1983 to clean the Ramapough
People's land within 10 years, and Ford ignored its responsibility to
clean the land by at least 1993. The EPA had a responsibility to enforce
its order but neglected to do so. The land was still contaminated in
2006, thirteen years after Ford's deadline. Therefore, the EPA shares a
responsibility with along with Ford for sickness and deaths resulting
from land contamination after 1993, because the EPA neglected to enforce
its own deadline. I am confident that The Cochran Firm never told the
Ramapough People that they also could make a case against the EPA,
because after Johnnie Cochran's death, The Cochran Firm seems to have
become a CoIntelPro agent.
After the alleged fraud against Catalano & Plache, "Cochran"
seems to have "disappeared" from the name and presumably from the law
firm that is now named Neufeld Scheck & Brustin. (Neufeld
may be left holding the bag.) The Cochran Firm is famous of its "now you
see us, now you don't" magic tricks. The Cochran Firm's office in
Atlanta actually got Judge Wendy Shoob to say there is no Cochran Firm
office whatsoever within the State of Georgia and dismiss my fraud
lawsuit against the scoundrels based on that perjury (Neals v. The
Cochran Firm, Georgia Superior Court, 2005). The Firm got Judge Timothy
Batten to rule it "immaterial" that The Cochran Firm's defrauded my
family to protect Memphis Shelby County Jail after the secret arrest and
wrongful death of Larry Neal (United States District Court, Norther
District of GA, Neals v. The Cochran Firm, 2007). See "WRONGFUL DEATH OF
LARRY NEAL"
http://WrongfulDeathOfLarryNeal.com
. I was very offended by the courts' deicsions and did not learn until
years later that "black men have no rights white men are bound to honor"
(Dred Scott decision) and that African Americans are not "real"
citizens who owe the nation allegiance and have PROTECTED rights. I did
not learn about the Black Codes in school, so I believed for over 50
years that I had regular U.S. citizenship when in fact, every 25 years
Congress votes on whether blacks can continue to vote and serve on
juries. If Catalano & Plache has many black attorneys and staff,
nothing is likely to be done about the firm being duped by The
CoIntelPro Cochran Firm lawyers. The Cochran Firm fraud against
minorities has many unexpected accomplices, including numerous black
people.
After defrauding the Neal family and the family of 92-year-old police victim Kathryn Johnston,
and lying in Georgia Superior Court (denying that Cochran Cherry Givens
Smith & Sistrunk law office is in any way connected with The
Cochran Firm or its Memphis law office), the managing partner of the
Atlanta office of The Cochran Firm, Hezekiah Sistrunk, was REWARDED by
being inducted in the prestigious Gate City Bar Hall of Fame. See the
embedded video below and at

YouTube link. Count how many times CCGSS denies any affiliation with The Cochran Firm in this Response to Interrogatories which it filed in Georgia Superior Court while it continued to advertise and contract with unsuspecting clients under that same identity
http://www.wrongfuldeathoflarryneal.com/docs/Ex05_CCGSSRogResponses.pdf When the Neal family sued The Cochran Firm for its fraud in federal court, The Cochran Firm proceeded to deny having any law offices whatsoever in Memphis, Tennessee. My 89-year-old mother said, "But that is where we signed contract." I said, "I know, Mama.
The Cochran Firm is allowed to do perjury in courts of law." See more awards that help Sistrunk cover-up his lack of ethics at this link

.
The Cochran Firm frauds are not usually reported except in legal journals. Mainstream
media, state bars, courts, legal search engines, the BBB and other
consumer protection agencies, etc., censor these lawsuits so The Cochran
Firm can continue to misuse Johnnie Cochran's name and defraud other
minorities like Mr. Mann and the Ramapough People and my family after my
mentally, physically handicapped brother's 18 days of secret arrest and
murder in Memphis Shelby County Jail. It seems that the law firm's main
purpose now is to defraud its own clients by reducing or eliminating
payouts by to its clients by government entities and major corporations.
The Cochran Firm is sued regularly by its own attorneys as well as its
defrauded clients.
Catalano & Plache may not
be the first law firm that sued The Cochran Firm for fraud, but
censorship keeps most civil actions against The Cochran Firm out of news
reports, and judges ordinarily prevent the frauds from going before a
jury. The Cochran Firm is a repeat offender, and I hope all of its
fraud victims will come forward, unite and sue the unethical law firm
partners under the RICO Act (assuming that blacks will not be interned
in concentration camps without any criminal charges and with no
opportunity for defense under NDAA.) People who persist in seeking
justice after falling victim to a Cochran Firm Fraud may be subjected to
gangstalking, censorship, financial persecution, and burglary. My home
was burglarized in August 2011, and the only things stolen were two
boxes of Neals v. The Cochran Firm lawsuit files and evidence I was not
permitted to put before a jury. In preparation for a RICO action against
The Cochran Firm frauds, I have followed numerous cases and invite you
to review ten(10) listed below along with their links.
1. COCHRAN FIRM FRAUD IN CA SUPREME COURT
http://marylovesjustice.blogspot.com/2012/10/cochran-firm-fraud-in-ca-court-of.html
The Cochran Firm was sued by black employees who contracted with The Cochran Firm to represent them against their employer in a race discrimination lawsuit. The Cochran Firm had the workers to sign a confidentiality agreement for mediation. The Cochran firm then removed the signature page from the confidentiality agreement and used it in a settlement agreement without its clients' knowledge or permission and settled their lawsuit for a miniscule sum.

JOHNNIE
COCHRAN was apparently surveilled by noted civil rights era
photojournalist and CoIntelPro agent, Ernest Withers - a former Memphis
policeman who was also assigned to gain Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr's
confidence and keep the government apprised of King's plans (Withers is
pictured on the left in the photo above). "They" have Cochran's law firm
now, and his name. LISTEN to former Cochran Firm attorney Shawn Chapman
Holley speak to NPR about racism and fraud against former Cochran Firm
attorneys who refused to defraud black clients after Johnnie's death and
were forced out of the firm by the new owners

would like to extend gratitude to Don DeBar for making us aware of the
latest Cochran Firm Fraud lawsuit. When "leaders" let us down, new
leaders arise. When mainstream media fails to report, we look to media
like Community Progressive Radio. Thanks, Don!
