Case Highlight | LawMay Resolved a $130,000 Patent TRO Case Within 24 Hours for $2,000, One Day Before Default Judgment

Case Summary

• Case Number: Confidential

• Jurisdiction: Southern District of Florida

• Case Type: Patent Infringement

  
  

In this case, the plaintiff filed a patent infringement lawsuit against multiple online sellers in the Southern District of Florida and successfully obtained a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and Preliminary Injunction (PI) from the court.

One Amazon seller, affected by the TRO and PI, had their listings removed and over $130,000 in funds frozen. After fully consulting with LawMay, the seller retained the firm to handle emergency response and settlement negotiations.

At the time of engagement, the Entry of Default had already been granted, and the plaintiff was scheduled to file a motion for default judgment the very next day. Without immediate intervention, the client faced significant risks of default damages—particularly with Black Friday approaching.

Attorney Richard Deng, acting as lead counsel, promptly assessed the service and jurisdictional issues and adopted a proactive litigation posture. He engaged in multiple rounds of negotiation with opposing counsel throughout the day.

Within just 24 hours, LawMay successfully reached a settlement of $2,000, representing only 1.5% of the frozen funds.

This result significantly reduced the client’s legal risk and dispute resolution cost. In terms of timing, efficiency, and outcome, LawMay delivered a highly satisfactory result that far exceeded client expectations.
