- Verdict: A client of the Carr Law Firm, P.A., just received a favorable jury verdict after a very hard-fought two-week jury trial in a construction case that involved claims for Breach of Contract and Construction Lien Foreclosure. The lawsuit was filed in 2008 for our client, a General Contractor, against a homeowner for failing to pay the amounts due pursuant to a construction contract. In response, the homeowner alleged everything from Fraud, Exploitation of the Elderly, violation of Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, Negligence, violation of Florida’s Building Code, Fraudulent Lien and Construction Defects. The lien was found VALID, and the jury found that the Defendant breached the construction contract and awarded our client every dollar sought. The jury also found that there were no construction defects.
- Settlement reached: The Carr Law Firm, P.A., litigated a case in federal court that involved allegations of breach of contract, trademark and copyright infringement, unfair competition, trade secrets and deceptive and unfair trade practices.

KIRVEN, JR., ACCESS HEALTH PARTNERS, LLC, FIFTY K GROUP, LLC, PURICORP HOLDINGS, LLC, DECLINOL LLC, PURIDONE LLC and APIQUEL LLC, jointly dismissed with prejudice the federal lawsuit that was filed by Avantcare, Inc., last year, with each party to bear its own legal expenses and with no party admitting any wrongdoing or liability.
