$1 Million Dollar Roof Damaged by Adjacent High Rise Construction
Steve Johnson and Chris Dunsing resolved a complex multi-party property damage action against a high-profile developer and its subcontractors for the damage done to the ornate roof of a five-star hotel and luxury condominium building in Chicago. In this fiercely contested litigation, Steve and Chris had to overcome claims that the damage could have been caused by other construction projects occurring around the subject building as well as claims for spoliation of evidence and that the hotel’s own general contractor caused the damage. The recovery was completed following a 13-hour mediation where Steve and Chris methodically established each of the defendants’ claims to be without merit.
