Complete Dismissal Obtained After HM&B Proves Plaintiff Committed Fraud Upon the Court

It’s another well-earned win for HM&B. Plaintiff alleged that he was injured when he slipped on water that he claimed the store should have known about. HM&B was able to prove to the Court that the Plaintiff had made numerous misrepresentations about the incident and about his current physical limitations. The Court agreed that Plaintiff misstated information to exaggerate and magnify his claim, which would have been falsely presented to a jury, but for the comprehensive discovery conducted by HM&B.  Accordingly, the Court granted dismissal of the entire claim. Hearty congratulations to our partner Stephanie Vo who skillfully argued the case!
