Berding|Weil attorneys are experienced landslide and subsidence litigators having successfully settled or tried dozens of such cases over the past thirty years. From beach erosion to homes settling in bay fill to multiple common area landslides, B|W has experience litigating almost any kind of common area soil failures. While most earth movement cases are settled short of trial, partners Tyler Berding and Randy Paul tried one of the biggest landslide cases to verdict in California, recovering $6 million dollars for an association in Fairfield. We have worked with the best geotechnical engineers in the state as well as all of the successful soil contractors. A successful earth movement case requires an engineer's understanding of the mechanics of failure but also the nuances of insurance coverage for natural and man made disasters, and our attorneys know both.
