Attorney I hired in 2014 for an illegal discharge case stole my money and about 171 more people. He was suspended in Sept 2016 and then recently disbarred. Had to wait for the disbarment so that a lawyer fund could determine if complainants would get refund from a fund through the TN Bar. Received word I will be getting $1575 refunded due to so many complaints and not the $4500 I paid up front. Can I now take the difference as a loss in 2018 and, if so, how?
