Back to EpisodesLawyer Ordered to Repay Millions for Impossible Work Hours
Description
Sydney lawyer Keith Redenbach, from Redenbach Legal, was ordered to repay millions after billing a local council for impossible work hours, including a 36-hour day. He invoiced for over 24 hours in a single day six times, with a staggering 103 hours claimed in May 2019. His rates also increased without notice, from $390 to $750 per hour. The legal battle cost the council $10 million, but settled for $1.5 million, leaving them short. The court ruled Redenbach personally owes the council $1.5 million, plus additional fees for shady estimates. His excuses of time sheet errors and jet lag were dismissed, concluding this overbilling scandal.
