Manhattan Lawyer Steals $396,000 from Client

'THIEF' LAWYER A HOUSE LOUSE: DA
The New York Post by JAMIE SCHRAM - January 31, 2009

A Manhattan real-estate lawyer stole $396,000 from a client who had hoped to use the money to buy a house in Brazil, authorities said yesterday. When the client went to close on the house last October, Robert Barsch 'fessed up - admitting that he had looted the escrow account to take care of "a personal emergency," prosecutors said. Barsch, 48, of Levittown, LI, returned $175,000 but cost the client the chance to get the home, prosecutors said. Barsch is charged with grand larceny and was being held last night on $20,000 bail. He is due back in court on Monday.

Hey ,
The guy is a stand up guy. Like he said he had a emergency.. Doesn't make it right he would have made good if he was given some time

Are the authorities allowing this person to work as an Enrolled Agent and practice in tax court?

Does he still share an office with Al Smith...and effectively work as his partner?

How can a convicted felon practice in tax court?

Was this person convicted of Grand Larceny? Was he reinstated to practic e in IRS tax court in June 2011?

How far does 400,00 go with six kids? Hope he's beetter at taxes than the Grand Larceny stuff.

Even the IRS has a statute of limitations for most things.....
Can Barsch work as a Mediator? In some locales...Mediation is an accepted Alternative to the regular law process...So. cane he pose as a retired attorney....who now works in Mediation...?
