Our company is a world leader in North Atlantic Live Lobster harvesting and distribution based in Nova Scotia, the largest Area 6 commercial operation on the New England Coast. Last year, we retained Barnes & Barnes, P.C. to pursue a Long Island based company which failed to pay for nearly $300,000 in live lobsters that had been delivered and accepted in good order. B&B immediately filed suit in the Commercial Division of the Supreme Court and requested, and was granted by the Judge, a trial date in less than 3 months after the Preliminary Conference. On the merits, the Defendant argued that it was not liable for the outstanding invoices because the product it received was allegedly defective upon delivery, an argument we knew was false. To undermine the Defendant’s false statement, Barnes & Barnes, P.C. served non-party document subpoenas upon the Defendant’s customer base to confirm that the Defendant actual sold to his own customers the product that he argued to us was defective. Upon presentation of this evidence, the case settled immediately, avoiding the costs for ongoing discovery and the trial. We highly recommend Barnes & Barnes, P.C.
