A consultancy firm intends to appeal a High Court ruling dismissing its lawsuit against an attorney, his practice and a related property management firm.

In a ruling on May 13, Justice Joan Charles dismissed the lawsuit brought by Aaron Knights Enterprises Ltd (AKEL), which claimed over $84,000 in outstanding consultancy fees, rent compensation, and damages stemming from a tenancy and service agreement dispute with Hove’s Court Ltd, Hove and Associates and its principals, attorneys Farai Hove Masaisai and Trishauna Scarlett Hove-Masaisai.

Justice Joan Charles found that the consultancy firm failed to provide sufficient evidence to support claims for unpaid fees in 2018 and 2021, breach of contract for November and December 2021, and consequential losses allegedly resulting from an agreement to continue services into 2022.
