Overview
Brinton successfully represented a co-founder of a start-up in a bench trial on liability involving an oral contract dispute. The company, which connected freelance workers with gig economy employers, was co-founded alongside a partner who had previously sold a similar translation-focused platform for $14M. When disputes arose over contractual obligations, his client faced significant legal and financial uncertainty. In trial, Brinton effectively argued the enforceability of the oral contract, leading to a favorable ruling on liability. With the defendant now held accountable, the case is likely to settle, securing a strong outcome for the client.
