The feud between partners Mark Pistilli, Diana Chang and Danny Simmons and law firm Atanaskovic Hartnell has ended with a fizzle after a Magistrate dismissed the partners’ claim for A$30,000 in fees in the Downing Centre Local Court.

 

The partners argued that they were entitled to the sum of A$30,000 as it represented their share of fees earned by the firm prior to their departure. They claimed that details of the relevant work-in-progress had not been entered into the system until after they left the firm.
