Hyundai Dealership Sues Snell & Wilmer for Alleged Professional Negligence Over Failed Arbitration Motion

In a recent legal battle, a Los Angeles Hyundai dealership has initiated a professional negligence lawsuit against the law firm Snell & Wilmer in California state court. The lawsuit accuses the firm and three attorneys of misrepresenting an allegedly flawed arbitration motion, leading to extraneous legal fees amounting to over $725,000 through an unsubstantiated appeal. The dealership contends that Snell & Wilmer engaged in deception by pursuing the appeal despite the evident deficiencies in the initial filing.
