Senior Associate Alex Berke Quoted in Law360 Article Regarding Recent Decision in Frazier v. FCBC Development Corp. et al.

Law360 reports on the latest decision made in Frazier v. FCBC Development Corp. et al., in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The defendant’s motion for judgement as a matter of law and a new trial was denied by U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian. Furthermore, the plaintiff’s motion for attorney’s fees was granted. The plaintiff’s favorable jury verdict, awarded back in February of 2024, still stands. Senior Associate Alex Berke, who represents plaintiff Frazier in this matter, shared her thoughts regarding the recent decision with Irene Spezzamonte of Law360, saying in a statement that she was pleased with the decision, adding that "we look forward to seeing if the defendant proceeds with its failed arguments at the Second Circuit or accepts the decision of a New York jury."
