Bosworth v. McCoy

The Castro firm was substituted in to try the case when the litigation was stalled by defendants’ refusal to pay arbitrator fees. The firm successfully removed and replaced the arbitrator and obtained a priority trial date for the action. The defendants filed 3 appeals and writs and a petition to the California Supreme Court, which were all denied.

Bosworth was awarded $2.4 million in damages, all his attorneys fees, and expert and litigation costs. The award was a joint and several judgment rendered against the builder for negligent construction and the lender for negligent disbursement.

The Castro firm achieved this result, from substitution date to the date of the award, in only 6 months. A critical piece of hi-tech evidence was a 15’ long time-line prepared by the firm which tracked payments, change orders, stop notices, correction notices, and payments.
