Reynolds Frizzell Attorneys Win Complete Appellate Trial Victory for OMNOVA Solutions, Inc.

Attorneys Jean Frizzell and Jennifer Josephson won a complete appellate victory for OMNOVA Solutions Inc. (now a part of Synthomer, a global specialty chemicals company). On October 27, 2020, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals issued an opinion affirming the trial court’s $5.6 million judgment in OMNOVA’s favor, upholding a trial victory secured by the same team following a week-long bench trial in 2018. The upheld judgment included favorable alternative awards for statutory fraud, common law fraud and breach of contract, and a judgment against the defendant’s $3.5 million counterclaim.
