Gorfinkel and Eagle Obtain Dismissal of Lawsuit Against Allstate Insurance Company

Paul Gorfinkel and Alan Eagle obtained a dismissal of a lawsuit against our client Allstate Insurance Company. Plaintiff had obtained a judgment against Allstate’s insured for lead poisoning but tried to collect the judgment directly from Allstate as a third-party beneficiary. Paul and Alan moved to dismiss the case, because plaintiff had no rights as a third-party beneficiary under the Allstate policies. The Supreme Court, Orange County agreed, and dismissed the case.
