CLIENT AWARD


Lion's Law has been awarded a "Strategic Business Advisor Accolade" from Sumiao Hunan Kitchen for its "unwavering dedication and invaluable contribution". 

NEW DEVELOPMENT

Court granted our motion to enforce a settlement reached at a mediation. We represent the defendant a small business owner in a 2.5 year long case where parties reached a verbal settlement at a mediation session. The following day, plaintiff reneged and refused to sign a settlement agreement. We requested court to enforce the verbal settlement, because mediator read out loud of parties' agreement, and parties clearly expressed their consent to the agreement, thus a verbal agreement was reached. We also reasoned that to continue the case will cause unnecessary financial burden to our client. Court agreed with our position.  

Our office reviewed and edited an employment handbook for a client company with employees throughout multiple states.
