Bethenny Frankel Jason is officially divorced from Hoppy, but she doesn’t fight over things she learned during their proceedings. During her filing, Bethenny discovered a major problem with her trust. So, she initiated a lawsuit with her former attorney, Jamie Schreck. However, Jamie recently claimed that the Real Housewives of New York alum has “dropped” her lawsuit. Bethenny’s team is being dishonest on this.
Bethenny Frankel Has “Abandoned” the Case, According to Jamie Schreck
Bethenny and Jason separated in 2012. They filed for divorce in 2013, but nothing could be finalized until 2021 due to their controversial lawsuit. One of these obstacles included a real estate acquisition that Bethenny made alone. And for this property he hired Jamie.
In 2011, Bethenny purchased a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 3,751-square-foot unit in New York City for $4.95 million. Next, Jamie apparently failed to consult with Bethenny when it came time to draft her trust. So, Jamie reportedly wrote up a trust that gave her ex, Jason, a 50% interest in the house. Cue Bethenny and Jason, who are “heavily suing” over the ownership of this purchase during their divorce proceedings.
So, in 2017, Bethenny sued Jamie for malpractice. In her lawsuit, Bethenny sought $2 million in damages because Jamie had improperly drafted documents related to her trust. But then, Bethenny clearly dropped the ball. According to the new filing received by tmzJamie is now calling out Bethenny for allegedly dragging her feet on this old suit.
Apparently, Jamie has been trying to depose Bethenny “for almost four years,” yet, nothing is happening. Also, Jamie offers Bethenny a chance to settle her case for the much smaller sum of $25k, but Bethenny is not buying into it. Instead, he “abandoned” the case altogether, Jamie claimed.
But soon after Jamie made these claims, Bethenny and her team entered the chat. He disputed his statements. He also noted that Bethenny is actively involved in the matter.
