Resolving Water Disputes for a New Residential Development
Tenacious in our pursuit of your goals—inside and outside the courtroom. That’s why, when Serratoga Falls, LLC, needed to place an underground pipeline through a 500-home subdivision development and immediately encountered a complicated lawsuit, they called in our litigation team. They faced 17 claims seeking over $750,000 in damages, disgorgement of profits and injunctions preventing water use and property development. We handled all aspects of the case including filing a counterclaim to obtain court permission to underground an open ditch running through the property. After a seven-day bench trial, the court dismissed all claims, approved the proposed underground pipeline and awarded attorneys’ fees and costs. The Colorado Supreme Court affirmed the lower court’s decision and also awarded partial appellate attorneys’ fees, a complete victory for our client.
