Legal Malpractice - Los Angeles, California. September, 2003
Non-Confidential Settlement: $350,000

We sued a well known Los Angeles entertainment lawyer who lost, on summary judgment, a substantial royalty case for two well known music composers. Case was difficult because it was lost on a statute of limitations defense asserted by the publishing company. We had to prove there was a winning argument that could have been made on summary judgment, that the lawyer was negligent in not making it, and that the case, had it gone to trial, would have succeeded.
