Experience
Wireless World LLC d/b/a Experts Choice v. T-Mobile USA, Inc. and Sprint Solutions, LLC, King County, Washington, Case No. 23-2-16531-4-SEA. Served on trial practice and complex motions team that won and obtained confirmation of a $13,950,060 arbitration award, including damages, attorneys’ fees and costs, on behalf of a small business wireless retailer client in JAMS arbitration. Following the merger between T-Mobile and Sprint, we represented Wireless World, former Sprint cellular phone and mobile services retailer that transitioned to T-Mobile post-merger. After Wireless World sold its business for a significantly reduced value because of alleged deceptive actions by T-Mobile and Sprint, we filed an arbitration with JAMS. Following a one-week hearing, retired Washington Supreme Court Justice Faith Ireland entered a final award in our client’s favor, finding violations of Washington’s Consumer Protection Act (a state unfair and deceptive trade practices or “mini-FTC” Act). A Washington Superior Court judge confirmed the award over T-Mobile’s motion to vacate.
