Congratulations to Advocate Capital, Inc. friend and client Mike McLachlan of the Law Offices of Michael D. McLachlan on the recent victorious judgment providing his clients with permanent water rights valued at $58M, awarded to thousands of litigants in the Antelope Valley Groundwater Cases.
This judgment has been 17 years in the making, originally filed in October of 1999. The case has over 65,000 parties, covers 1,100 square miles, and is the largest groundwater rights adjudication in western U.S. history. The judgment is great news for the Antelope Valley, ending years of uncertainty of the region’s prospects for economic growth.
Attorney McLachlan concentrates his practice in civil litigation and has successfully handled a wide variety of jury trials and arbitrations. He has also published a number of articles in legal publications and speaks to professional groups on a variety of legal topics.
All of us at Advocate Capital, Inc. are proud to support the work of trial lawyers, like Mike McLachlan, who work tirelessly to pursue justice on behalf of their clients.
