Dale and Brian are back to take you behind the scenes of their legal saga that’s heating up as ForeverLawn heads back to trial after an unsuccessful settlement conference. When things couldn’t get more complicated, Attorney Dan—once Matt and Diana's lawyer who helped secure a $1 million judgment—re-enters the picture, but this time, he's on the opposite side. Suing JSA for breach of covenant of good faith, Dan claims he never received payment for his services.

With the trial set to start over with a new judge and jury, the brothers finally get a chance to tell their story. Tune in to hear how ForeverLawn prepares to face another round in court and what this could mean for the future of the case.

Episode Highlights: 

• Headed back to trial.

Welcome back to Impact Without Limits. In the last episode, Dale and Brian discussed filing a notice of appeal. However, this didn't halt the other proceedings. The plaintiff, anticipating the appeal would favor ForeverLawn, hired an attorney in Ohio to collect the money before the appeal could be processed. With the help of a trusted attorney, the brothers managed to file a motion with the Ohio court, staying the proceedings until the appeal's outcome was determined.

Despite this temporary relief, the plaintiff launched a series of lawsuits against ForeverLawn, Dale, Brian, their wives, and numerous business associates. The brothers brought on a new attorney, who joined the chorus advising them to file for bankruptcy. Although the stay in Ohio provided brief relief, it also triggered a fresh wave of legal battles.

Tune in to this episode to hear how Dale and Brian navigated these challenges and continued to push forward.

Episode Highlights: 

• The ‘stay’ in Ohio.
• Temporary relief.
• A wave of new lawsuits.
• The ForeverLawn Conference.
• Servant leadership.
