Successful Settlement in High-Stakes Construction Dispute!


Congratulations to our client Dwain Brown and co-managing partner Juan C. Restrepo, Esq. on the successful settlement of a high stakes adjoining construction dispute involving structural damage to Mr. Brown’s property (see, Dwain Brown et al v. Marsha Lindsay et al, Index No. 534320/2023, Kings County Supreme Court, State of New York).

After securing civil and criminal contempt findings against the neighboring developer due to the breach of a temporary injunction, our team advanced the case to a damages hearing, which ultimately led to a favorable resolution after just one day of proceedings.

The result:

  • ✅ A confidential monetary settlement including the recoupment of professional fees
  • ✅ A binding remedial action plan to repair and protect our client’s property

Job well done!
