Four years ago we introduced you to the two-man wrecking crew of brothers Joseph and Vincent Stafford, the brash attorneys widely regarded by observers as the biggest dicks in divorce court (“Monsters of Misery Court,” April 26, 2006).

Among their patented moves: threats, intimidation, and the occasional fisticuffs. It’s all designed to make the joyride through a disintegrating marriage that much more fun for everyone involved.

But it appears their reign is facing a challenge: Vincent recently defended himself in a record-setting 22-day hearing before an Ohio Supreme Court disciplinary committee. He was accused of five counts ranging from trying to frustrate other lawyers, to tangling with his client’s ex-husband at a Browns game, to nearly driving a deadbeat husband to a killing spree.
