| Joseph Beeler, P.A. [Beeler] appeals the denial of its motion to intervene in the instant action. For the reasons which follow, we reverse. Beeler successfully defended Ezperanza de Saad on money laundering charges brought by the federal government. As a result, under their fee agreement, Ms. De Saad owes the firm over one million dollars in attorney's fees and expenses. As part of the fee agreement, Ms. De Saad assigned to Beeler any rights she may have to sue her former employer, Banco Industrial de Venezuela [BIV]. Subsequent to the federal litigation, Ms. De Saad filed the instant action against BIV for breach of her employment contract and for indemnification. |
