Fingers Do the Squawking – The most embattled real estate in New Jersey might just be the back cover of the yellow Pages. Ask personal injury lawyer Karim Arzadi.
In 2004, the Perth Amboy solo asked a court to restrain Verizon from publishing its New Brunswick Yellow Pages until it put his ad on the back. He alleged that Verizon promised he would be next in line for the coveted spot, but instead gave it to the Elizabeth firm of Eisdorfer, Eisdorfer & Eisdorfer.
Middlesex County Superior Court Judge Edward Ryan found Arzadi had not proved an oral contract, and last Wednesday an appeals court affirmed.
Undaunted, Arzadi presently has ads on the back covers of directories in East Orange and Somerset and will soon add Perth Amboy, a spot up to now occupied by the Eisdorfer firm.
Verizon’s lawyer, Ernest Wildenhain, of Warren’s Ventantonio & Wildenhain, says there is a waiting list for the back covers of the Yellow Pages. “Lawyers frequently compete for (them) . . . and it is not uncommon, lawyers being lawyers, that they can get contentious at times.”
