Helping a new women's shelter
When
a non-profit womens' organization secured funding for a much needed and
well-designed shelter for abused and threatened women and their
children, the contractor built a lovely facility -- and then sued for
millions of additional construction fees. The all-women volunteer Board
of Directors hired us to defend the Shelter and then stood firm through
several years of fierce litigation. Shortly before trial, the
contractor agreed to a settlement in which it received nothing.
