Reeves Prevails at Trial Against Amazon.com

Representing his client, PHI, LLC, Reeves prevailed at trial against internet giant Amazon.com.  Reeves' client was wrongfully denied Amazon Associate payments after Amazon claimed that one of the posts made by Reeves clients and containing Amazon referral links did not comply with Amazon's Associate Program terms.  In spite of the fact that Amazon was informed that the allegedly non-compliant links were not associated with PHI's Associate account, Amazon refused to pay or settle the claim, necessitating trial. Reeves' client ultimately prevailed.

Case: P.H.I. LLC v. Amazon.com Services, Inc., First City Court, New Orleans, Louisiana. Case No. 2018-07905.
