British Telecommunications and Unilever Telecommunications Deal

Seeger Weiss LLP represents a small businessman who brokered a multi-million dollar global telecommunications deal between two multi-national corporations, British Telecommunications PLC ("BT") and Unilever PLC, and then was cut out of the deal by the companies and refused his fee. In 2004, the firm successfully overcame BT's motion to dismiss the action on forum non conveniens grounds (in which BT argued that the action should not have been brought in the United States). After extensive discovery ' both in the United States and overseas ' and further motion practice, the case was settled in 2007. This is one of a number of cases that Seeger Weiss has handled on behalf of small businesses who have been wronged by behemoth corporations.
