QUESTION

Should I go to trial?

Asked on Apr 29th, 2013 on Litigation - Florida
More details to this question:
I reside in Florida in a city that is considered historical and I am being sued by a property developer for notifying city officials about a neighboring historic building that was wrongly razed. The City followed up on my written complaint and found it to be 100% correct. They stopped the work and asked the Developer to present himself in front of the Historic Board. The Board told the Developer that he had greatly exceeded the permits and asked him to reconstruct the structure. In turn, the Developer is suing me for bringing this specific issue to the attention of the City. My attorney did not have the case dismissed as the plaintiff played the Malicious Intent card, but without proof. Unfortunately, Florida has narrowed anti strategic lawsuit against public participation suit statutes, so my attorney is recommending trial.

When you already have counsel regarding this matter, it will not be fruitful to get second or third or fourth opinions from attorneys who do not know the facts of your case. You should listen to your attorney, that is about the only advice we can honestly give to you.
