Case Results

  • Won $1.1 million jury verdict against world’s largest management-software company

  • Successfully defended an international corporation in a patent dispute filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. Damages in excess of $3.2 million were claimed, but the case was settled shortly before trial on terms that involved zero damages (our client was not required to pay any amount of money to the opposing party)

  • Successfully obtained temporary restraining order and subsequent preliminary injunction in federal court under Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, enjoining threatened “shut down” of client’s website and mandating transfer of domain names and registrar account to client

  • Prevailed on motion to create mirror-image copy of opponent’s personal computer in copyright-infringement case, which led to discovery of destruction of material evidence

  • Successfully removed non-productive LLC member from the company on terms very favorable to the business. The defendant offered to settle moments before the court was to issue a ruling.

  • Negotiated a six-figure settlement for a pedestrian struck by a negligent bicyclist in the District of Columbia.

  • Won a $55,860 judgment against a tenant who caused less than $12,000 in damage to the leased premises. The high damages award was the result of applying a relatively unknown “double damages” statute and also included an order that the tenant reimburse the landlord for all attorneys’ fees incurred.

  • Obtained favorable settlements “on the courthouse steps” for two telecommunications carriers in separate actions involving the planning and construction of wireless telecommunications facilities.
