Judge Tosses Law Firm’s Suit Alleging Rival’s Ads Inflated Recoveries
“A Kansas law firm that claimed that a competitor was inflating client recoveries in its advertising won’t be able to pursue its lawsuit,” reports Debra Cassens Weiss in ABA Journal’s Law Firms.
“U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren of Wichita, Kansas, ruled against the Brave Law Firm in Feb. 12 decision dismissing his case.”
“The Brave Law Firm, a personal injury firm, had alleged that Brad Pistotnik Law and the Pistotnik-affiliated Truck Accident Lawyers Group were engaging in false and deceptive advertising by listing high-dollar recoveries.”
“Various amounts are listed on screen, including $9 million … The $9 million amount was also listed online and in print ads.”
