LPHS Secures Complete Arbitration Victory in High-Stakes Supply Contract Dispute

LPHS Partner Alan Dabdoub and his team (Steven Gersten, Shirley Xu) have secured a complete victory in a five-day commercial arbitration involving a critical long-term supply agreement. The arbitrator declared the contract termination wrongful, awarded the client nearly $3 million in damages and attorney’s fees, and rejected the opposing party’s $2.5 million counterclaim in its entirety — a total swing of more than $5.5 million in the client’s favor.

The case centered on the wrongful termination of a multi-year supply agreement essential to the client’s manufacturing operations. Navigating damages calculations spanning the full remaining contract term, the LPHS team delivered a result that reflects the firm’s commitment to relentless advocacy for clients in high-stakes disputes.
