Dickinson Obtains Summary Judgment For Engineering Firm In Property Damage Case
Will Dickinson obtained summary judgment in favor of a civil engineering firm arising out of extensive damage to two homes during a drainage pipe replacement project undertaken in the Village of Buffalo Grove. The Plaintiffs alleged significant damage to their properties, including multiple cracks to their foundations.
Will presented evidence to Judge John Callahan, Jr. that many of the allegations brought by the four Plaintiffs were not duties contracted for by the engineering firm. He also successfully demonstrated that the engineering firm complied with its contractual duties in preparing plans and specifications for the pipe replacement project, and that the firm’s plans and specifications were not the cause of the alleged damages.
