Case Results
- In 2005, Mr. Horowitz successfully defended an appeal for a real estate client that had won his case at trial (the trial was handled by another law firm). The plaintiff/appellant filed the appeal to try to overturn his trial court loss against the defendant/respondent represented by Mr. Horowitz. The appeal dealt with the issues of resulting trust, lis pendens and bona fide purchaser in connection with properties purchased by Mr. Horowitz's client. After briefing and oral argument, the California Court of Appeal upheld the trial court's ruling, resulting in a successful outcome for Mr. Horowitz's real estate client.
- Mr. Horowitz obtained a favorable result for a contractor client after 2 1/2 days of trial in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Norwalk Courthouse, on August 13-15, 2008. Mr. Horowitz represented the plaintiff, a licensed California general contractor, in a lawsuit against a property owner for breach of contract, enforcement of mechanics' lien, common counts and statutory wrongful withhold.
- After several days of trial in July 2006 in the Los Angeles Superior Court, Van Nuys Courthouse, Mr. Horowitz obtained a favorable ruling which was later turned into a judgment, for a client that sought the remedies of resulting trust, constructive trust and declaratory relief against a defendant that refused to recognize the client's off-title or silent ownership interest in a piece of real estate.
- In a one day trial in the Los Angeles Superior Court, Van Nuys Courthouse, on September 19, 2005, Mr. Horowitz successfully upheld an employee's Labor Commissioner award which had been appealed by the employer. The main issue revolved around whether the employee was an actual employee or an independent contractor.
