Clients owned a home insured with a homeowners / fire insurance company for 15 years. In that time period, the clients never submitted a single claim against the policy. Later, the house was damaged extensively in a fire, requiring extensive repairs to over half the building, in an amount estimated at over $100,000.00. The clients' insurance company denied coverage, basing their denial on their claim that a smoke detector discovered in the debris at the site did not have a battery in it, in violation of the stated terms of the insurance policy issued on the property. The homeowners claimed that all smoke detectors on the property did in fact have working batteries in each detector, and that if one was discovered among the debris without a battery, it was in all likelihood due to the damage that resulted when half the structure collapsed in the fire, as well as due to damage sustained by the structure when firefighters extinguished the blaze with axes and high-powered hoses.
Result: Secured order from arbitrator requiring the insurance company to pay all policy benefits applicable to the loss. Clients received over $115,000.00 in coverage payments from insurer to rebuild house.
Clients hired a home building contractor to build a living room addition to their home. The contract required the contractor to act as the General Contractor on the job, supervising the work of all subcontractors. When construction was finished, it was apparent that a wall was bowed and a ceiling not level. The clients made multiple complaints to the contractor to repair the defects, but he claimed the defects were due to a subcontractor that the clients had hired independently, and not due to any of the work of a subcontractor for which he was responsible. Estimates to repair these defects, if the clients were forced to pay for them, ranged from $10,000-$15,000.00.
Result: Suit threatened against contractor under new state Home Improvement Contractor Law. Affidavit secured from members of work crew that subcontractor who built wall and ceiling was in fact supervised by general contractor. Demand made for complete repairs to property, without any deductions or offsets. Contractor relented and agreed, property repaired to clients' satisfaction. Clients were saved an amount in excess of $12,000.00.
Clients, a recently married young couple, had, after many months of searching, located a house to purchase, and executed an Offer To Purchase and a standard form Purchase and Sale Agreement for the property. After the Purchase and Sale Agreement was executed, but prior to the scheduled conveyance, the seller informed the buyers she had changed her mind, and would not sell them the property. The buyers had previously spent over six months trying to locate a house they wished to buy before finding the subject property, were under related time constraints to purchase a home, and very much wanted to purchase this particular property.
Result: Demand letter issued to seller's attorney and suit threatened against seller for specific performance of contract, damages as well as an injunction. Negotiations with seller's attorney convinced him to advise his client to agree to convey the property to clients. Clients still remain in the much-improved property, after 15 years.
