<p>Rosenthal piled up millions of dollars in fees with the approval of his former law school pal, disgraced ex-Surrogate Court Judge Michael Feinberg.</p>
<p>On December 4th, the state Appellate Division disbarred Feinberg, and suspended Rosenthal from practicing law for two years.</p>
<p>From 1992 to 2002, Judge Feinberg awarded Rosenthal nearly $9 million in fees. He regularly awarded his buddy 8% of the estates&#8217; assets, while lawyers in other boroughs typically received 6% or less.</p>
<p>Instead of filing the required affidavits, Rosenthal submitted fee requests on Post-it notes.</p>
