Facts: Our client, SLS, hired us to help him defend against a retaliatory complaint filed with the Board by a competitor. The client provided outstanding services to his client in connection with evaluating the competitor’s work before approval was given to continue with the project the competitor had been working on. Our client had pointed out several concerning problems with the project work and the competitor was unhappy with those findings and filed a complaint to retaliate against our client.
Outcome: The firm gathered the necessary documentation and prepared an aggressive, written response undercutting the veracity of the competitor’s baseless allegations against SLS and urging the Board to dismiss it. On request, we provided additional information that further vindicated our client and demonstrated the complaint against SLS was bogus. After completing their investigation, the Board completely dismissed the complaint against SLS, finding that the complaint lacked credible evidence of any wrongdoing.
