Denlinger, Inc. v. Agresta, 714 A.2d 1048 (Pa. Super. 1998)

Outcome: Won in Superior Court (reversed trial court)

Description: This was an appeal from the decision of the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County and a case of first impression under the PA mechanics' lien law. The Superior Court agreed with my argument (and made new law) that it is permissible for a claimant to plead in the alternative, i.e., as both, a contractor and a subcontractor. This was a published opinion. Client was very happy.
