We prepared the defense of an international information technology company which was sued before the commercial court for breach of his obligations to invest in a new venture set up by a team of consultants. We obtained the dismissal of all the claimants’ demands based in particular on willful misconduct by demonstrating that there was no causal link between the damage suffered and the bankruptcy proceedings on the one hand, and the lack of investment from our client on the other hand. Our client’s position was justified by the other parties’ own default under the investment agreement.
