Ardent secures confidential six figure settlement on behalf of a former vice president of a large company. The former employer initially threatened litigation and demanded the vice president to return nearly $50,000 in alleged overpaid commissions. Prior to filing any legal action, the parties and their respective counsel participated in a mediation. Mr. Paul K. Song, a principal in Ardent’s litigation department, led Ardent’s litigation team where it presented the conclusions of a forensic audit and legal arguments to one of the nation’s most renown mediators as well as the attorneys present for the company. Based on this, Ardent was successful in persuading the company to reverse its position, and pay the former VP a hefty six figure settlement.
