Potential client (elderly man - former New Yorker now in Maine) 'befriended' then solicited by young woman to 'invest' in her coaching business. After giving her 40-50k over 1-2 years, she gives him initial 'return on investment' check of $2,000. and shortly after tells him not to cash the check, but rather to destroy it. There are then no further discussions about the "investment". There is no documentation of or agreement regarding the 'investment'. Tough situation for sure. Would appreciate any suggestions (counsel to assist, insight, etc. - the D.A. is not very helpful). Many thanks. [cid:image001.jpg@01DCF97A.D5939EA0]<http://www.kaplanandkaplanlaw.com/> Steven L.
