- In one of the few multi-level marketing cases actually tried to jury verdict, Bos & Glazier won a major victory for two California distributors against a multi-level marketing company. The $1.1 million judgment on the jury's verdict was even more satisfying since the case had been thrown out of court by the trial judge who was reversed on appeal. The trial received national media coverage with the Associated Press filing reports on final arguments and the jury's unanimous verdict.
- When the government takes private land for public use, the battle is over how much the taking is worth. In one such case, the government offered our client $186,000. But after our jury verdict, the State of Michigan paid $945,000 to settle the case. Immediately following that victory, we settled another condemnation case for the property owner when the State of Michigan agreed to pay our client $9.1 million instead of the $1.9 million the government had originally offered.
- In 2007, our firm won a $690,000 verdict on behalf of an employee who asserted a claim under the Whistle-Blower Protection Act.
- Arbitration "trials" are excellent methods of alternative dispute resolution. Bos & Glazier has successfully represented many clients in that forum. For example, an arbitration in Salt Lake City (tried on behalf of four distributors against Morinda, a Utah-based direct selling company) resulted in a substantial award for our clients. Once again, our opposition received no benefit whatsoever from its "home town" advantage.
