We are representing Ashland Inc. in three substantial cases related to insurance coverage claims for asbestos litigation. After an acquisition of another entity, our client assumed liability for its asbestos litigation. During the course of litigating these cases, we have become embroiled in disputes with Resolute, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway that is handling the claims. Two of the cases are currently in arbitration and one is set for trial in state court in 2015. The two cases in arbitration are seeking a total of $52 million. We recently completed a two-week arbitration in Washington, D.C. for one claim, and we will begin another two-week arbitration on another claim this summer.
When early negotiations failed, we represented shareholders seeking recovery of contingent payments from a multi-billion dollar international corporation. The payments were owed for breach of a stock purchase agreement and for unauthorized transfers of intellectual property. The opposing corporation filed fraudrelated counterclaims, vigorously contesting the claim. We initiated detailed discovery and thorough analysis of intellectual property transfers to demonstrate the triggering of payment obligations. Through a predictive coding document review system, we were able to efficiently examine approximately 250,000 of the opponents’ documents as we prepared our case against a better-financed adversary. Our opponent decided to settle prior to trial, resulting in a successful resolution of the contingent payments owed.
We are defending Parthenon, LLC as the investment manager of an approximately $80 million trust where the plaintiffs allege improper management and “sub-par appreciation” in relation to issues such as portfolio diversification and capital gains taxes. The plaintiffs, two purported beneficiaries of the trust, previously engaged in litigation related to the distribution of the trust. Following that litigation, the plaintiffs filed suit against PNC Bank for negligent investment, and PNC brought Parthenon in as a third party. We conducted depositions and brought in an industry expert who testified that the returns on the investment exceeded the S&P 500 and other applicable indices. Our client, along with PNC, moved for summary judgment and it was granted on the grounds that Kentucky does not recognize the theory of “sub-par appreciation.”
We represented ViaQuest, Inc. and its subsidiary SupportCare, Inc. in a two-week jury trial involving allegations of misappropriation of trade secrets, civil conspiracy, tortious interference with contractual relations and breach of duty of good faith and loyalty. Two former employees conspired to bring one of our then current employees to their new place of employment. The former employees knew the current employee was capable of bringing her full case load, her entire staff and all of her associated contracts, totaling yearly gross revenues in excess of $500,000. We constructed a case based on several “smoking gun” documents showing the civil conspiracy and received judgments on all claims, receiving a total verdict of over $2 million. In addition, we sought punitive damages and attorneys’ fees from the defendants. Prior to a hearing to assess those damages, we negotiated a settlement with the defendants for an additional $225,000.
We represented Larry Flynt in an ownership dispute with his brother, which also involved allegations of wrongful termination. Flynt’s brother filed a lawsuit asserting that he was a partial owner in the organization and entitled to financial compensation. We demonstrated that the plaintiff had no legal ownership in the organization. A federal court rejected the plaintiff’s claims and the decision was affirmed on appeal. The brother then claimed that he was wrongfully terminated as an employee within his brother’s organization. We again found the claims to be without merit and we moved for summary judgment, which was granted and affirmed on appeal. Meanwhile, Larry sued his brother and his brother’s company for trademark infringement. We were granted summary judgment and a permanent injunction was entered prohibiting our client’s brother from using the HUSTLER mark.
We won a $2.7 million verdict for the fleet maintenance company in a case against Insight Communications involving kickbacks provided by a former employee. We were able to prove that Insight moved their fleet business to the former employee in exchange for free repairs on Insight managers’ personal vehicles, as well as cash and gift cards. In a separate lawsuit, our client also reached a settlement with the former employee.
