Since bitfloor has a lawyer... tell me why this can't work:
Roman gives the lawyer the money with a list of people owed, and the lawyer contacts everyone with a settlement agreement. If they want their money, they sign the settlement, and he mails out checks... why is that so fucking hard?
Perhaps the lawyer's bank won't allow him to deposit the check from Roman?
Seems crazy to me. It's from what, US Bank or something? Or bank of America, I forget. Go into Bank of America, and cash the check with hundred dollar bills and give it to your lawyer. Yeah, yeah, that won't ever happen but the whole thing seems a little crazy that his lawyer can't get it worked out for him. Pick a new lawyer.
If you are so sure it is that easy, make the agreement with your bank to be the disbursing bank and let it know how it goes.
