Jury Gives Morgan Lewis Unanimous Defense Verdict in Contract Breach Case

Morgan Lewis & Bockius Wednesday defeated a $20 million breach of contract claim brought by a former client. The 12 jurors in Brodie v. Morgan Lewis came back just before noon after 3 1/2 hours of deliberations over two days. They were unanimous in their defense verdict. While the jury found that Bro-Tech Corp. -- operating as Purolite -- and its owners Don and Stefan Brodie properly brought the suit within the four-year statute of limitations, they said Morgan Lewis did not breach its contract with the Brodies by advising them to continue selling their water filtration products to companies in Cuba.
