Darmer, Ireland and Stokes Obtain Dismissal

Charlie Ireland, Angel Darmer, and Hannah Stokes of our Birmingham (AL) office successfully defended their client, a national automotive maintenance and repair company, in a binding arbitration hearing. The plaintiff was seeking damages for alleged breach of contract and conversion of a fleet vehicle. Defense counsel argued that an alleged oral contract did not exist, the plaintiff was bound by the terms and warranty limitations in the existing written agreement between the parties, and the plaintiff could not present the required elements to prove the conversion claim. Following a full arbitration, the arbitrator entered a decision in complete favor of the defense and the case was dismissed with prejudice. Great Results!
