Layfield negotiated a $3.
After he stole millions from his clients’ settlement funds, Layfield moved to Coto de Caza in Costa Rica. Before he fled, he applied for a $700,000 loan from a business lender with misleading information, according to federal prosecutors who detailed Layfield’s crimes during a 13-day trial last year.
Layfield used the bulk of the money from the loan for personal expenses, including purchasing a horse and then shipping other horses to Costa Rica, authorities said. He was arrested in New Jersey in 2018 after he returned to the United States and was disbarred in California later that year.
