Press Release Summary = Theodore A. Bechtold Esq. is investigating previously
settled Milberg Weiss cases affected by plaintiff payoffs to recover improperly
awarded legal fees for Class members. To date over 60 tainted cases have been
identified in Court documents.

Press Release Body = The Statement of Facts in the plea agreement of David Bershad
provides a detailed description of illegal payoffs to and perjury by plaintiffs at
the direction of Milberg Weiss. The indictment of Milberg Weiss Bershad & Schulman
and its partners calculates David Bershad's take from the cases identified by the
government as over $26 Million. His plea agreement will leave him with at least $18
million of his partnership cut derived from these illegal activities to begin
compensating Class members in affected cases. Other Milberg Weiss partnership
interests and payouts were also derived from these activities and should rightfully
be returned to Class members in cases affected by the misconduct of the firm and its
partners.

There are other sources of additional compensation for Class members including
recovery of legal fees generated by work performed on contaminated Milberg Weiss'
cases by outside lawyers and paid for from settlements approved by corrupt
plaintiffs. Class members can also pursue claims of fraud on the Court and reopen
cases based on the admitted pattern of illegal conduct. The attorneys and plaintiffs
involved in the fraud withheld key information from every Judge approving every
Milberg Weiss settlement entered into on behalf of their stable of corrupt
plaintiffs. Each case lacked lead plaintiffs approved by the Court exercising
oversight of counsel and representing the interests of absent Class members. These
improper and illegal activities have been perpetrated on Courts and Class members
throughout the nation for many years. Class members in affected cases have a legal
right to pursue monetary damages from all parties unjustly enriched by the illegal
activities of Milberg Weiss. Investigating Counsel believes that any and all
available legal means should be employed to properly compensate Class members in
cases where these illegal activities were employed to deceive the Court. Research
continues to identify additional cases tainted by the activities of Milberg Weiss
and its partners.

If you were a class member in any of the 63 cases identified in Court documents that
are listed below or believe your case was affected by these illegal activities you
are encouraged to contact Theodore A. Bechtold, Esq. at 570 686-3438 or by E Mail
