Our client owned highway frontage property in gold country. After he obtained entitlements to develop the site as an outlet mall, Caltrans installed a truck weigh station on his property without his permission that took away access to the adjacent highway. At trial, we won a verdict for the client of $500,000 with an additional attorney’s fees award equal to 1/3rd of the verdict, plus a costs award.
We represented owners of a condo unit accused of making substantial renovations to the common area without consent of the HOA. Our clients prevailed on all the claims at a binding arbitration.
Shopping center owner sued our client for environmental cleanup costs of over $2MN. After completing key discovery, we filed a successful motion for summary judgment and our client was dismissed from the case.
After an acquisition of a software development company, the acquiring corporation commenced a binding arbitration under the terms of the acquisition contract against our clients, the controlling shareholders of the acquired company. After the arbitrator was engaged, we commenced discovery demonstrating there was no merit to the claims against our clients. Our clients were then dismissed for a waiver of costs. The original demand was for over $285,000.
