Alleged kick-backs to named plaintiffs or people who referred named plaintiffs that were not disclosed. And, since the class certification process (whether before or after settlement) required them to disclose this sort of thing under oath, you've got perjury. Plus, if I recall correctly, the way the lawyers paid the plaintiffs (in large sums of cash, reportedly kept in an office safe) resulted in potential tax evasion and money laundering issues.
The Wall Street Journal Law Blog has followed the whole Milberg Weiss indictment story in some detail.

The term "followed" used here in the sense of "reveled in."
