Representative results

A selection of outcomes across our practice areas. Client names and identifying details are withheld to protect confidentiality.

Jury verdict
$11.3M

Fraudulent inducement

A manufacturing company bought a competitor based on financial statements that turned out to be fabricated. After the sellers refused to negotiate, we tried the case to a jury in federal court and obtained a verdict for the full purchase price plus punitive damages.

Negotiated buyout
$6.1M

Partnership dispute

A minority LLC member discovered the managing member had been steering contracts to a separately owned entity. Forensic tracing of the diverted revenue produced a buyout at nearly three times the initial offer, without a trial.

Frozen and returned
$4.2M

Emergency injunction

Funds moved out of a company account by a departing partner were frozen by court order within 72 hours of the client's first call and returned to the company under a consent order two weeks later.

Pre suit settlement
$2.4M

Disputed invoices

A wholesale buyer took delivery on 31 orders and then disputed every invoice. Our demand package, supported by carrier records and a reconciled ledger, produced full payment plus interest before a complaint was filed.

Recovered wire
$640K

Business email compromise

A client wired payment to a fraudulent account after a supplier's email was spoofed. Rapid notices to the receiving bank and a court order for turnover recovered the funds before they left the country.

Arbitration award
$1.9M

Distribution agreement

A distributor terminated without cause in breach of an exclusive agreement. We obtained an award for lost profits through the remaining term, plus attorneys' fees under the contract.

14 days
Fund hold lifted

Marketplace dispute

A seller's marketplace account was frozen with $180,000 in pending payouts over an unfounded fraud flag. A documented appeal and preservation demand resulted in the hold being lifted and the account reinstated.

Injunction
Non compete enforced

Business theft

A former partner opened a competing business and solicited the client's customers using a copied client list. We obtained an injunction stopping the solicitation and a settlement that included return of the data and a payment for the diverted accounts.

Federal jury trial
Full defense verdict

Contract defense

A distributor was sued for $3.5 million by a former supplier alleging breach. After an eight day trial the jury found no breach and awarded the plaintiff nothing.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Every matter depends on its own facts, the applicable law, the court, and the conduct of the other side. Amounts shown are gross recoveries or awards before fees and costs. Some matters were handled by our attorneys before joining the firm.
