An Ohio court has ruled that property owners can recover attorney fees when their eminent domain cases are dismissed by the taking authority. This decision was highlighted by a recent case involving a Collin County judge, who awarded up to $1.6 million in attorney fees related to a real estate dispute. In a separate matter, plaintiffs' attorney Michael Ketchmark reported spending over 7,000 hours on the Gibson commission lawsuits, totaling $10.1 million in expenses since 2019. Additionally, the plaintiffs' lawyers in the Gibson case are seeking more than $36 million from the proposed settlement, further complicating the legal landscape surrounding these real estate disputes.
