Looks like $35k. No one would risk destroying their reputation over that small sum. I wonder what the other side of the story is?

People have killed for far less...If they were in a bad enough financial position, they could have thought that they would borrow their client's money to pay immediate bills, and pay the account back with future client earnings. It happens quite frequently in the legal world--it's the number one reason lawyers get disbarred in CA after drug use.

Possibly even a single partner was defrauding the business.

If the other partners were not aware this was occurring until now, that might be a more benevolent explanation of why the agency has gone dark.
