50 blames his ex lawyers for urging him to file for bankruptcy. The claim reveals that he wouldn’t have filed if he was aware of the “neglectful, negligent and unethical conduct of Raymond and Reed Smith,”according to Billboard.com
“Reed Smith and Raymond did not follow established legal standards in representing Jackson in the Leviston Case by failing to provide effective representation and conduct proper pre-trial and trial preparation prior to the Leviston trial. The complaint calls out Reed & Raymond for their ineptness when they were preparing for his case against Leviston. “In addition, their lack of effective representation and inadequate pre-trial preparation and preparation for trial caused Jackson to retain new counsel on the eve of trial.”
