Rawle & Henderson may have lost its fight to get a professional negligence suit against the firm thrown out at the preliminary objection stage, but it has succeeded in carving out some of the claims through judgment on the pleadings.
Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Mark I. Bernstein, who issued the order regarding preliminary objections, granted Rawle & Henderson’s motion for judgment on the pleadings and dismissed the professional negligence, breach of fiduciary duty and punitive damages claims in Tower Investments Inc. v. Rawle & Henderson.
