Associate Ishra Razzaq Obtains Summary Judgment On All Claims.

Associate Ishra Razzaq was awarded pre-discovery Summary Judgment, resulting in a favorable outcome for our client. The plaintiff alleged that she slipped and fell due to a defect in the sidewalk where our client was purportedly conducting construction work.

Once we took on the case, Attorney Razzaq performed a comprehensive search of the client and City records. The findings indicated that the only work carried out by our client was completed two years before the plaintiff's alleged accident and was not directly at the site of the claimed defect.  Therefore, we contended that our client's work was entirely unrelated and not a proximate cause of the plaintiff's injury. The court concurred and dismissed the claim against our client.

At BMM, we take pride in our proactive and assertive advocacy. This case resulted in significant savings for our clients in legal fees, as we were able to file for dismissal prior to depositions and during the early stages of discovery. This assertive strategy underscores our commitment to life-cycle as a key performance indicator.  Our metric-based approach to litigation continues to benefit all clients we have the pleasure to represent.
