Attorney Kevin F. Richardson secured an appellate court decision, overturning a trial court’s judgment that allowed a commercial tenant to remain in possession of its used car sales business without paying rent, due to the landlord’s failure to install a fence around the lot. Mr. Richardson successfully argue that the tenant failed to follow Florida Statutes regarding notice of the intent to stop paying rent, and that the lack of a fence did not prevent the tenant from continuing to sell used cars.
Attorney Kevin F. Richardson successfully negotiated a $5.5 million settlement on behalf of a client who had been wrongfully denied liability coverage under a commercial automobile insurance policy stemming from a motor vehicle accident that occurred while our client was conducting his employer’s business. After the company’s insurance company was formally put on notice of the accident, the insurance company denied that our client was entitled to any coverage for the accident, forcing our client to rely upon his personal automobile insurance policy, and then later his personal assets, as a result of being denied coverage from his then-employer’s insurance company.
