The fate of 74 lawyers in Los Angeles was unclear after New York lawyer Marc Dreier was charged in December with $100 million in securities fraud. Dreier, the founder and managing partner of New York firm Dreier LLP, was charged with one count of securities fraud and one count of wire fraud, both of which involve a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
Over the past two years, Dreier wooed prominent Los Angeles attorneys to form a California partnership known as Dreier Stein Kahan Browne Woods George LLP.

The firm, an affiliate of Dreier LLP that operated under separate management, issued a statement on behalf of its other name partners: “We are continuing to operate our Los Angeles law firm for the benefit of all our clients, while immediately discontinuing our relationship with Marc Dreier.” And the Santa Monica firm answered its phones with a shorter greeting: “Stein Kahan Browne Woods George LLP.”

In recent years, there has been a growing number of dry cleaners claiming to be "organic," "green," or "eco-friendly."
