A typographical error is just that. Nobody told you to go out and spend the money before you had it. Bonds can loose their value just like stocks although the risks are generally less. The law firm would not have any liability for your foolishness in spending monies before they became yours.

Re: Misprinted information

You have a tough case, if any at all, and made tougher by your terrible decision to spend the money before you had it. The wording of the letter might give you the basis for the claim depending on the specific wording used. Some also would also depend on what you spent the money on. If you bought a used boat, for instance, and can sell it to effectively "undue the sale" then you have no damage.
