What do a trustee in bankruptcy, an adjudicator and a disgruntled employee have in common? The answer: they are all the subjects of cases that we discuss in last year’s Farrer & Co privilege round up put together by Ben Longworth, Hoi-Yee Roper Leo Salem and me. We’ve read the cases in full so you don’t have to. Another bumper year for privilege decisions!

Good short article on a concerning trend.

Trust, patience, perseverance, success. Our recent Seminole County, FL verdict in a mTBI case—$2.3 million (~46x the initial offer)—is why those words matter. In 2016, our client, just entering 6th grade, was involved in a devastating high-impact car crash. A speeding flatbed truck ran a red light and smashed into her car. She sustained a traumatic brain injury. At 11 years old. She has overcome challenge after challenge for the last 8 years. Her future is forever changed. The settlement offers were insulting, but our client and her family trusted our team to fight for a fair outcome. Their patience in waiting for justice was the key to securing a favorable result. ?? Initial Offer: $50k ?? Pre-Trial Offer: $500k ?? Final Verdict: $2.3M When we build genuine relationships, mine our cases for inconspicuous gems, and aggressively litigate for our clients, outcomes exceed expectations. Our clients’ trust allowed us to focus on the bigger picture and we achieved a result that wasn’t just about the money. It was about true justice. Success requires perseverance, especially in civil litigation. Justice takes time. Ridiculous settlement negotiations and endless discovery requests are exhausting. But with the right strategy and litigation team, and the trust of our clients, achieving outcomes that surpass expectations is possible. Jordan Redavid and John Fischer - keep fighting the good fight. #Trust #Patience #Perseverance #Advocacy #Litigation #TraumaticBrainInjury #TrialResults #Verdict #Winning

In Barr Holdings, LLC v. The Black Point Beach Club Association KNL-CV22-6059616-S, (“Barr Holdings II”), the client Black Point Beach Club Association (“BPBCA”), a beach association and quasi-municipal corporation with taxing and regulatory powers over a community off Niantic Bay, was sued for the second time by residents who claimed the BPBCA was responsible for maintaining and repairing a scour wall in the bay. The first time the same plaintiffs sued under theories of negligence and nuisance in 2020, BPBCA won summary judgment in 2023 based on governmental immunity from negligence claims. Barr Holdings, LLC v. The Black Point Beach Club Association KNL-CV20-6048857-S (“Barr Holdings I”). While summary judgment was still pending in Barr Holdings I, the same plaintiffs sued our client again, this time on the grounds that the BPBCA owed a duty to maintain and repair the scour wall, only now based on theories of contract and quasi-contract. Once judgment was entered in Barr Holdings I, Halloran Sage moved for summary judgment on BPBCA’s behalf in Barr Holdings II, invoking the doctrine of res judicata, which bars a lawsuit if there is a former judgment on the same claim. The doctrine applies not only to claims actually made and litigated but, also to claims a plaintiff could have made in the first action. In Barr Holdings II the Court found that because the second suit arose from the same set of facts and circumstances as Barr Holdings I, featured the same parties, and there had been a final judgment on the merits, judgment should enter without trial because there was no reason plaintiffs could not have brought the “new” contract claims in Barr Holdings I, where the only difference was the label on the legal theories at issue. Res judicata prevents cases suffering from “déjà vu” from clogging up the dockets, and the court cited judicial economy as a policy ground for applying the doctrine here. This case demonstrated Halloran Sage’s multi-disciplinary capabilities in defending its clients in complex matters. The litigation team was comprised of Tort Trial Lawyer, Kevin Roche; Appellate Attorney Thomas Plotkin, and Land Use and Municipal Attorney, Mark Branse. #HalloranSage #CTLawyer #apellatelawyer #torttriallawyer #landuselawyer #municipalattorney #CTAttorney
