Ayala is proud to announce that it has obtained a $351,000 verdict for its client in a business dispute case involving dubious investment deals.
The business dispute case involved, initially, a claim against Ayala’s client (the defendant in the case) that a loan given by Ayala’s client to the plaintiff was usurious. Ayala’s client denied any allegation of usury and counterclaimed stating, not only that the interest rates were agreed upon, but that the plaintiff continued to request funds for shrimp trading deals that either failed or were non-existent.
Ayala’s client brought theories of civil conspiracy, fraud, money had and received, and unjust enrichment.
In the end, the jury agreed with some parts of either side’s story, but awarded monetary damages only to Ayala’s client.
As stated by business attorney Eduardo A. Maura, “It is not all we believed the client deserved. We were seeking at least twice as much, but in the end, we are happy that the client obtained monetary damages that will compensate him for some of the money it gave the plaintiff.”
