Itkowitz PLLC obtained a $300k buyout for a residential tenant, who was defending against a holdover case.  This tenant was represented by another lawyer for the first two significant rounds of the case, and had lost.  When we got the case we looked carefully at it, and saw something that the earlier counsel had missed.  We asserted the issue, and it was enough to take the wind out of the landlord’s sails.  The landlord came to the table and offered the tenant a buyout he could live with.
