Global law firm McCarter & English LLP has lodged a request with a Connecticut federal judge asking for an increment of the prejudgment remedy order against a former client by $1.8 million. If granted, this increase would almost double the original remedy of $1.85 million.
The firm sustains that interest on ensuing jury awards keeps piling up as the dispute steps away from the federal court and enters the Connecticut Supreme Court. This ongoing tussle has captured the attention of legal community worldwide for its potential implications on client-law firm relationships and the ever-evolving landscape of legal dispute resolution. The original story was first reported on Law 360.
