Greg Gnepper Successful in Litigation Case
Litigation partner Greg Gnepper recently represented a California company in litigation in Arizona. As part of a dispute over invoices, the defendant had seized a piece of equipment from the client’s premises. Greg sought and obtained a preliminary injunction that prevented the defendant from transferring, encumbering, or even using the equipment. After a full evidentiary hearing, the court sided with our client and determined that the defendant’s position lacked merit. Our client was ecstatic with this decision.
