Partnership Litigation: Recusal Of Judge

We protected our client when his ex-partner’s best friend was the only judge in the county.
All politics are local, and sometimes politics gets in the way of fairness. We were called in to handle a partnership dispute concerning the ownership of two upstate New York diners and joint property holdings. The case was before a powerful judge who was allied with our client’s former partner. No attorney in this upstate county would represent him, fearing future repercussions from the judge.

Our client was on the verge of having his business shut down. We stepped in with an aggressive litigation strategy, commenced by bringing a motion to have the judge disqualified from the case. The motion succeeded, saving our client’s business. We subsequently obtained a favorable settlement for the client after obtaining a level playing field.
