Breach of Contract; Telecommunications
A lawsuit was brought against both a Fortune 1000 telecommunications company and a prospective purchaser of equipment, alleging that the telcom company-Client had breached a contract with the plaintiff for the purchase of the equipment, and that the prospective purchaser-Client had tortiously interfered with the alleged contract between the telcom company and the plaintiff. The Firm was hired to represent both the company and the purchaser, and a favorable settlement was negotiated with the plaintiff allowing the company to sell the equipment to the purchaser as planned. (The purchaser-Client was then able to begin operations as the first national minority-owned telecommunications company.)
