GTTC Obtains $11 Million Verdict in Property Loss Dispute

GTTC partners Frank Cordell, Jeff Thomas, and Greg Pendleton represent Ingenco Holdings, LLC and Bio-Energy (Washington) LLC (collectively “Ingenco”) in a dispute with ACE American Insurance Company.  Ingenco owns and operates a plant that converts landfill gas into clean, saleable natural gas.  The plant suffered a breakdown, leading to substantial repair costs and business-interruption losses.   ACE denied Ingenco’s claim under its All-Risk and Boiler & Machinery insurance policy.  After a three-week trial in federal court in Seattle, the jury found for Ingenco and awarded nearly $11 million in damages.  GTTC served as co-counsel with Ingenco’s longtime counsel, Robert Rauch.  Reports from Insurance Law 360 may be viewed at the links below with a subscription.
