    The Continued Erosion of Coverage Post-'Indalex'

    It's an all-too-frequent fact pattern: construction contractors or subcontractors perform allegedly defective work on a building construction project, resulting in damage not only to the work itself but other aspects of the building. The owner (often an innocent homeowner) has a damaged building; the developer has an unsatisfied owner and looks to its construction contractors; and the contractors and subcontractors are subject to claims and lawsuits, but have little financial capability to address the problems and damages, much less defend against any owner- or developer-filed claims and lawsuits.

    Hourly Rates for Top Supreme Court Advocates Revealed in Fee Filing

    Recent filings in an attorney fee request in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit lift the veil on the four-figure hourly rates charged by top advocates before the U.S. Supreme Court. Thomas Goldstein of Washington's Goldstein & Russell is seeking nearly $306,000 in fees for winning a key Fourth Amendment case. The amount is based in part on Goldstein's $1,100 hourly fee, plus $750 for partner Kevin Russell and $600 for partner Tejinder Singh.
