Illinois Partners Prevail in Contract and Unjust Enrichment Suit

Chicago Partners Natalie Eschbach and Paul Ruscheinski recently prevailed on a Motion for Summary judgment in the Kankakee County Courthouse on behalf of our convenience store client in a breach of contract and unjust enrichment suit.

A snow and ice removal contracting company alleged it was not paid for services it provided at several of our client’s convenience store locations. Subsequently, Plaintiff filed suit against our client claiming breach of contract and unjust enrichment for our client’s alleged failure to pay for Plaintiff’s services.

Our defense attorneys Natalie Eschbach and Paul Ruscheinski filed a Motion for Summary Judgment, establishing that Plaintiff was unable to provide any facts to support its breach of contract and unjust enrichment claims.

In November 2025, the Kankakee County Courthouse granted our defense attorneys’ Motion for Summary Judgment, dismissing the case in its entirety and ruling in favor of our client.
