The firm represented the design builder and general contractor against allegations of violations of the California False Claims Act and for Breach of Contract. The plaintiffs sought damages of over $25 million. After several years of litigation which culminated in a presentation by the firm of significant exonerating evidence, and insurance coverage claims by the firm against its clients’ insurers, the breach of contract case was resolved, and the false claims cause of action dismissed, for a cost of defense payment primarily by the insurer.
