The plaintiff brought two actions against the defendants for unpaid commissions and remuneration for work on a technical audit related to a condominium development project.
The plaintiff claimed she had a verbal agreement for a 2% commission or $220,000 per year.
The court found no such agreement existed and instead applied quantum meruit, awarding the plaintiff $182,152.81 based on an industry-standard 1.5% commission rate.
The plaintiff's second claim for technical audit work was dismissed on the basis of unjust enrichment principles, as there was no reasonable expectation of payment.
