Opinion
April 13, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Beatrice Shainswit, J.).
Plaintiff's first cause of action seeking to recover in quantum meruit the reasonable value of services rendered was properly dismissed because a written contract exists which governs plaintiff's compensation for services rendered. Plaintiff's third cause of action seeking a portion of any fees that may be awarded to defendant in any future arbitration was properly dismissed since, as defendant concedes, plaintiff's right to recover under the contract is in no way dependent upon whether or not the defendant ultimately prevails in such future arbitration.
