In King Cole Condominium Ass’n v. QBE Insurance Corp., No. 08-23350-CIV-GRAHAM/TORRES (S.D. Fla.), the Court denied Plaintiff’s motion for new trial of a defense jury verdict rendered in a Hurricane Wilma first party action.  BMS attorneys, Evelyn Merchant and Melissa Sims successfully defended the action for QBE and Sorraya Solages successfully defended the post-trial motions.  The Court also awarded QBE $345,337.25 in attorneys’ fees and costs as the prevailing party pursuant to a $250,000 offer of judgment that was not accepted by King Cole.  King Cole has appealed the final judgment as well as the order awarding attorney’s fees and costs.
