LCBF successfully dismisses professional liability claim and obtains sanctions against plaintiffs

Our client, a civil engineer, was sued in relation to site work at a municipal redevelopment project. Discovery revealed email evidence which demonstrated that our client was free from fault. LCBF sought immediate dismissal, but plaintiffs refused. LCBF submitted a successful motion for summary judgment and our subsequent motion for sanctions was granted. The court sanctioned plaintiffs and awarded $30,000 in favor of our client. The LCBF team was headed by Joseph Tomaino.
