Ayala is proud to announce that it has reached an $80,000 settlement in a highly contentious 1.5 year old commercial eviction case.
The case stems from a lease assigned to Ayalaโs client from a prior tenant that the Landlordโthe complaint allegedโfailed to honor. Despite having approved the new tenant, and taken three months worths of rent payments, the Landlord took it upon itself to eject Ayalaโs client by changing the door locks. Thus, from one day to the next, Ayalaโs client had to scramble and seek new premises for its machinery rental business, causing substantial damages to Ayalaโs business.
After over a year of highly contentious litigation where the defendant took over 10-depositions, and filed innumerous motions, the parties reached an out of court resolution at the mediation conference.
As stated by attorney Eduardo A. Maura: โWe are happy with the result, even though it is less than what our client expected. But that is the nature of mediation. Both parties decide to compromise, in an effort to move on and continue with their lives. At the end of the day, thatโs what matters the most. Litigation can be brutal.โ
