Family of man accused in pro-surfer killing sues Pacific Law Center

By Jason Siegel

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Pacific Law Center is being accused of fraud and unlawful business practices by the family of one of the men charged in the death of a professional surfer, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.

The family's suit claims that the firm pressured them to pay a $175,000 retainer after allegedly telling them that Seth Cravens, one of five men accused in the death of Emery Kauanui, would be released from jail within days of his May 2007 arrest and that the case would be dismissed after getting certain hospital records.

In December, Cravens was still in jail and the family fired the firm and requested a refund, which was denied.
