Lauren Serafin and Robert Leighton were the quintessential Chicago power couple. They were two good-looking young lawyers who planned to marry last August. What Lauren didn't know was that her husband-to-be was a huge douchebag, something she'd only find out later...

Robert Leighton decided to cheat on his fiance during his Vegas bachelor party. The missus-to-be wasn't very happy about that.
In July, he and his friends flew to Las Vegas for his bachelor party. Apparently a night getting hammered at McCarthy's Bar is a little too low-brow for budding young barrister crowd. And while he was in Vegas, he hooked up with a woman known only as Danielle.

The two met at a nightclub, then repaired to Leighton's hotel room, where they got bonerific.

Leighton returned to Chicago and acted as if nothing happened, abiding by the that annoying slogan of "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." But his secret was upended when Serafin discovered text exchanges with Danielle on his cell phone.

Leighton tried to bluff at first, saying that he and Danielle only made out. But his defenses withered under further scrutiny. He confessed to going full boner and never mentioning to Danielle that he was about to be married. Then he called off the wedding.

Serafin, however, did not rejoice over the fact that she'd been inadvertently rescued from marrying a degenerate. No, she was rather pissed, since she'd spent a ton of loot preparing for their wedding.

So, like any good lawyer would, she decided to sue the asshole for breach of promise and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

She'd already put down a deposit for a reception at the Ritz, and now she was forced to tell the 170 guests that the wedding was off because her fiance was a cheating douchebag. She'd also spent money on a wedding dress, bought dresses for bridesmaids and flower girls, booked a wedding shower and made non-refundable flight and hotel reservations for their honeymoon in Bora Bora.

All told, she wants $62,000 from Leighton for his felonious acts of dickheadness.

So while Serafin's are hurt, it's probably good she was jilted now rather than after the marriage. The bigger bonus round: She might decide to marry and non-lawyer next time. The possibility of two lawyers breeding is not a good prospect for the rest of humanity.
