Verdicts / Settlements (Case Results)
- $2,876,000.00 Settlement with Colorado Builder and DeveloperJohnson Law represented the owners of 20 townhomes located within 3 buildings in Denver, Colorado. One of the homeowners contacted Johnson law with concerns about stucco and roof leaks. Johnson Law hired experts to investigate the buildings and found that in addition to the stucco and roofs needing full replacements, that repairs were also necessary to driveways, firewalls, flooring, doors, windows, brick, siding, and many other elements of construction of the townhome buildings. Johnson Law experts coordinated with defense experts and the case settled quickly in an amount that allows all 20 homeowners to make proper repairs, along with pay for all attorney fees and costs., 2022
- Boulder County Homeowners Association Reaches Confidential Construction Defect and Design Defect Settlement for against Builder, Developer, and Architect Johnson Law represented an HOA in Boulder County, Colorado. After the board president contacted Johnson Law, Johnson Law retained experts that found defects in drainage, driveways, paving, stucco, siding, trim, stone, windows, roofs, and fire protection. Johnson Law’s experts preliminarily estimated the cost to repair to be well over a million dollars. However, after securing enough votes to initiate litigation amongst the HOA members, the defense offered enough money that the HOA decided to accept and avoid a lawsuit., 2021
- $1,500,000.00 Real Estate Nondisclosure Settlement With Seller and Seller’s Real Estate Agent Johnson Law represented the purchasers of a home in Broomfield, Colorado for the seller’s failure to disclose substantial construction defects in the home. The defendants in this case denied all wrongdoing until Johnson Law began discovery and threatened sanctions against the defendants and their attorneys. In depositions, Johnson Law attorneys were able to get the seller to admit his fraud and establish that the seller’s real estate agent had knowledge of the defects as well. Seller and Seller’s real estate agent’s combined settlements were $1,500,000.00., 2019
- $1,945,000.00 Construction Defect Settlement With Colorado Developer, General Contractor, Architect, and Key Subcontractors Johnson Law represented the owners of a five-townhome building in the lower highlands / Jefferson Park area of Denver, Colorado. The building suffered from leaking roofs, grading and drainage defects, siding defects, HVAC defects, and other various defects. Johnson Law sent CDARA notices of claims on behalf of our clients to the general contractor, developer, roofer, HVAC subcontractor, and architect. The construction professionals made no offers to our clients in response to the CDARA notices and one attorney for the defendants called the claims “frivolous.” We pushed forward with the lawsuit, that included a detailed expert investigation and depositions of the defendants and their experts. The total cost of repair to the building was estimated at $400,000.00-$1,300,000.00 between defense experts and our clients’ experts. Even as trial approached, many of the defendants remained steadfast with their unreasonable positions. Johnson Law attorneys recommended pushing forward towards trial. One week before trial a final settlement was reached with the last remaining defendants. The total settlements recovered for our clients was over $1,945,000.00., 2020
- $2,103,000.00 Settlement Plus Repairs With Several Colorado Builders and Key Product Manufacturer Johnson Law represented the owners of approximately 15 homes for defects in their home and the products incorporated into their homes. Johnson Law brought claims and cases against the national builders that sold the homes and a key manufacturer of the defective products. After winning several important motions in the courts and extensive negotiations, Johnson Law’s clients received the necessary repairs, paid housing while repairs were made, significant per diem payments while displaced, plus the cash settlement listed above., 2019
