Employee (Plaintiff) was President of a Company (the Defendant). Defendant terminated Plaintiff after an eight-year tenure. In Plaintiff’s second year of his tenure, Defendant issued to Plaintiff shares of stock in the Company via a stock certificate as recognition for Plaintiff’s significant contributions to the Company’s growth in a private surprise ceremony of just Defendant’s CEO, Plaintiff, and Plaintiff’s spouse. The stock certificate was post-dated and had an invalid certificate identification number.
Defendant issued Plaintiff shares despite Plaintiff’s failure to meet the required revenue milestones to be entitled to ownership interest. Defendant never issued Plaintiff a K-1 tax form in the years to follow. Plaintiff never asked to be issued a K-1 tax form. Defendant never issued Plaintiff distributions. Plaintiff never asked to receive distributions. Defendant submitted various government certification documents in the years following the issuance of the stock certificate and Plaintiff was never listed as an owner. Plaintiff signed the same government certification documents. Defendant never recorded issuance of Plaintiff’s shares of stock on Defendant’s stock ledger.
Upon being terminated, Plaintiff asked to be compensated for the stock certificate. Plaintiff still had the original in his possession. Defendant refused to compensate Plaintiff. Defendant took the position the stock certificate was unenforceable and declined to negotiate. Plaintiff filed suit for breach of contract.
Defendant denied all material allegations and filed counterclaims alleging breach of fiduciary duties and violations of Plaintiff’s non-compete provision contained in his employment agreement with Defendant. The basis of Defendant’s counterclaims were allegations that Plaintiff purposefully bound Defendant to financial obligations Plaintiff knew were above-market-value, Plaintiff started a business that began competing with Defendant before his employment ended, and Plaintiff continued competing with Defendant after being terminated.
After months of hard-fought litigation, Defendant agreed to pay Plaintiff $185,000 and agreed to waive the remainder of Plaintiff’s non-compete prevision, allowing Plaintiff to resume his business.

Our clients hired an individual and a business that represented themselves as licensed Class A contractors to perform substantial work on their home. Relying on those representations, our clients paid a significant deposit up front.
After taking the money, the defendants failed to perform any meaningful work on the project. They repeatedly delayed, then stopped responding altogether and did not return to the property.
The lawsuit contained allegations of breach of contract and violations of the Virginia Consumer Protection Act based on the defendants’ false claims about their licensing status, their acceptance of a large deposit, and their failure to perform the promised work.
The Virginia Beach Circuit Court entered a $60,000 judgment in favor of our clients, providing compensation for their financial losses and the harm caused by the defendants’ misconduct.

Our client entered into a consignment agreement with a car dealership to sell his truck. He delivered the vehicle and signed paperwork authorizing the dealership to sell it on his behalf.
The dealership sold the truck but never paid our client any of the sale proceeds. Despite repeated requests, the dealership refused to account for the money or honor the contract.
The lawsuit contained allegations of breach of contract and violations of Virginia’s Consumer Protection Laws based on the dealership’s failure to remit the proceeds from the consignment sale. The defendant disputed liability and claimed it did not owe the full amount demanded.
The Westmoreland County Circuit Court entered a judgment for $115,326.01 in favor of our client, reflecting the value of the vehicle, related damages, and applicable relief under the Consumer Protection statutes, including our client’s attorney’s fees.

2025. Our client previously received radiation to the head and neck as treatment for throat cancer. Years later, he underwent dental extractions and placement of implants.
During the dental procedure and follow‑up, he developed serious complications, including implant failure and exposed jawbone. He was ultimately diagnosed with osteoradionecrosis and required multiple surgeries, including removal of dead jawbone and reconstruction.
The lawsuit alleged that the treating dentist should have recognized the increased risk from the prior radiation and taken additional precautions, including hyperbaric oxygen therapy, before proceeding. The defendant disputed both the standard of care and whether any different treatment would have changed the outcome.
After extensive discovery and expert review, the case was resolved at mediation for a $1,800,000 settlement, which included compensation for significant past medical expenses and future care needs.
