Significant Representative Matters

  • Represented owner of deer fencing company sued by independent contractor whose assistant was injured when a tension cable being used in the installation of a deer fence system snapped and lacerated the plaintiff's face and eyes. Established that plaintiff himself was the cause of the cable snapping and subsequent injuries. Defense verdict.

  • Defense verdict in novel negligence/premises liability case. Defended a night club which had hired an off-duty state constable as a security guard who shot and killed a pedestrian who had just pulled a handgun and fired into a crowd of people on a busy city sidewalk. Two bystander plaintiffs alleged they were struck by bullets fired by the constable's weapon. Jury apparently agreed with our position that the decedent created a public hazard and that the constable's response was necessary and appropriate. We also argued that there was no proof that the bystanders were struck by bullets from the constable's weapon. We established that at least two other weapons were discharged during the situation and there were more bullets and bullet fragments present than could be accounted for by the known weapons. One bystander did not have the bullet removed from his body, and the bullet which struck the other bystander passed through her body and was not identified from those recovered at the scene.

  • Represented seller of home accused by plaintiff of failure to disclose numerous of prior incidents of water intrusion. Conceded a single incident of water intrusion, which occurred post execution of agreement of sale and which was thought to have been repaired. Asked the jury to find for the plaintiff in the amount of approximately $2,000 for repairs related to that incident. Jury returned verdict of $2,500 for plaintiff.

  • Represented plumbing contractor joined by home builder as an additional defendant in numerous construction defect cases commenced against builder by homeowners. Successfully raised "The Gist Of The Action Doctrine" as a complete bar to claims for contribution and indemnification by builders. Five claims dismissed on motions in Chester County Court of Common Pleas. Two more claims pending in Delaware County Court of Common Pleas.
