IN what could be a record sum involved in such cases, some S$33 million has gone missing from the clients' account of boutique law firm JLC Advisors, where a senior lawyer has at the same time become uncontactable.

The firm has reported the case to the Law Society, which has stepped in and taken over running of the account.
