The Morrison Law Group announced its formation on April 21, 2006. The Firm is headed by its principal, Edward F. Morrison, Jr., 46 years old, a veteran
Los Angeles based trial lawyer and maintains its offices in downtown Los Angeles.
Now well into its third year of operation, the Firm's principal, Edward F. Morrison, Jr., in a statement issued October 30, 2008, said:
"The Firm has experienced continued development in its practice. The Firm has continued to accept a number of additional assignments and is now involved in the representation of clients in over 100 litigated and transactional matters. In the thirty months the Firm has been in operation, the Firm has won a binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (the arbitrator ruled that the Firm's client owed no money on the claim and awarded the Firm's client all attorney's fees and costs), won a motion for summary judgment and recovered fees and costs in that case, obtained a Judgment from the Trial Court following the Firm's first Superior Court trial in December 2006 and recently completed its first two jury trials.
The Firm has also collected and/or obtained settlements totaling over $1,500,000 in a variety of construction, contract and business litigation matters, been named to the approved attorney panels of three major insurers and has taken on over 155 new assignments since its founding in April 2006. The Firm has also published twenty-eight editions of The Morrison Law Journal and is ready to go to press with its twenty-ninth edition which discusses a recent California Court of Appeal decision which provides that a plaintiff which had lost a motion to compel and was forced to arbitration had the right to dismiss the complaint and file a separate action which may not be subject to the trial court's order to compel arbitration even though the claims in the new lawsuit overlapped in some respect with the earlier filed complaint.
I am pleased with the continued growth and development of the Firm's practice.
