Pryor Cashman has been awarded $2.46 million in legal fees after a Manhattan state judge found the firm’s ex-client, a coal company that raised overbilling complaints, did not timely object to the fees and did not prove damages from alleged conflicts of interest.
"U.S. Coal does not allege that it was damaged in any way by the alleged conflicts of interest, which is fatal to the claim," wrote Justice Melvin Schweitzer (See Profile) in Pryor Cashman v. U.S. Coal Corp., 651908/2011.
