Aug. 28, 2026 – Morris Law and its co-counsel at Mintz & Geftic defeated a motion to dismiss filed by A.D.S. Environmental, Inc. (“ADS”) and two of its principals, Paula Mininni and David Mininni.

Court decision represented by a judge’s gavel and legal documentsThe lawsuit seeks relief on behalf of New Jersey customers who were allegedly overbilled by ADS for oil tank removal and/or soil remediation services since November 5, 2019. According to the lawsuit, ADS used deceptively written proposals, hidden contract terms, and undisclosed or inadequately disclosed charges that caused customers to be billed substantially more than the prices they were led to expect. The lawsuit asserts claims under New Jersey’s Consumer Fraud Act and other laws.

ADS moved to dismiss the action in its entirety, including the claims asserted on behalf of the proposed class of New Jersey customers. On August 28, 2026, the Superior Court of New Jersey denied the motion, finding that the Complaint “does lay out causes of action” against ADS and the other defendants.

“We are very pleased with the Court’s decision and look forward to moving ahead with the case,” said Jesse C. Morris, Esq. of Morris Law. “The lawsuit alleges that ADS’s customers were given proposals containing an apparent price term, but that the proposals fail to inform customers that ADS might charge substantially more. We allege that the proposals fail to disclose the maximum amount customers can ultimately be billed.”
