Coffey said the firm has been in contact with the FBI and the U.S. attorney’s office in hopes of having the servers restored.

Coffey said he did not know how many lawyers have left the 7-year-old firm, which at its height boasted 70 lawyers.

RRA partners Grant Smith and William Berger, a former Palm Beach Circuit judge, flanked Coffey and the sole remaining equity shareholder, Stuart Rosenfeldt, at the hearing.

Streitfeld also appointed forensic accountant Richard Pollack to assist Stettin.

“I think a terrible situation is going to be managed in the best way possible,” Coffey told the judge.
