6.9 Million Dollar Verdict for Corporate Client Based on Fraud and Embezzlement

In 2009, attorneys Vanessa Kinney and Josh Sanford secured a verdict in excess of $6.9 million for a corporate client in the Circuit Court of Pope County, Arkansas. The complicated claims brought in that case against multiple defendants included multiple counts of breach of contract; breach of duty of good faith; breach of fiduciary duty; tortious interference with business contract and business expectancy; fraud; conversion; trespass to personal property; misappropriation; unjust enrichment; and civil conspiracy.

$100,000 Award for Unpaid Child Support

In 2010 attorney Josh Sanford secured a judgment for his client for unpaid child support in the amount of $100,000.00.  Back child support can be collected by the child for whose benefit the support was originally ordered once the child is an adult.  In this instance, Sanford Law Firm represented a 21 year old who sought to collect child support his father had not paid.

Foreclosure Case Ruling

Arkansas Supreme Court clarifies remedies available in forclosure cases. Sanford Law Firm was proud to take this case on appeal to the Arkansas Supreme Court in 2007.  The client had unlawfully been deprived of his home in violation of statutory law, and the trial court was reversed and the client was restored to ownership of his home.  (pdf link)

Interest on Child Support Confirmation
