Sarah Goldberg, of the Miami office, received voluntary dismissals in 2 cases involving pre-Hurricane Irma roof claims. In the first claim, the mold remediation company pursued a claim from a roof leak. Through aggressive discovery by Sarah, including setting several depositions close in time to the hearing on the Motion for Summary Judgment Sarah filed, the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the claim on the eve of the hearing on the motion for summary judgment.

On the second claim, Sarah, early on, identified the lack of evidence of any cause of the alleged loss and tailored her discovery to depose the homeowner and her representatives who could not provide a cause for the loss. After these depositions were completed, Sarah filed a Motion for Summary Judgment, which caused the plaintiff to dismiss the case two days prior to the hearing on the motion for summary judgment.
