Another success for our firm \u2013 the court dismissed a lawsuit filed against our client on false pretenses!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lawsuit was filed by a real estate agency against our client, an employee of the company, claiming that he owes them brokerage fees in the amount of approximately 35,000 NIS, pursuant to a lease agreement for a property that was signed between the agency and the company, our client's employer.

It was also argued that the lawsuit was filed in bad faith, especially in light of the fact that our client's employer went bankrupt and that the lawsuit was filed several years late.
Following the submission of his objection, and several hearings held at the Magistrate's Court in Rehovot, including an evidence hearing that included cross-examinations of the parties and oral summations, the court accepted all our arguments and ordered the dismissal of the claim.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
