San Mateo County Superior Court
CPM represented a real estate entrepreneur and fund manager in litigation against his former joint venture partner. The case involved millions of dollars’ worth of San Francisco real estate. CPM’s clients claimed that their long-time business partners overpaid themselves out of joint venture properties. In a jury trial, CPM prevailed on its clients’ claims and also defeated the defendants’ countersuit, which claimed entitlement to half of the real estate fund’s profits.
