With a proven record of securing dismissals and summary judgments, defeating class certification, negotiating favorable resolutions, and trying cases when necessary, our firm is recognized for a proactive, business-focused defense strategy against potentially crippling lawsuits.
We manage high-stakes class actions and other aggregated litigation end to end while helping clients mitigate reputational harm, collaborating closely to build forward-looking risk management frameworks that address immediate exposure and emerging and long-term trends.
A trusted partner to leading global companies, our class action defense practice distinguishes itself through exceptional legal talent, deep fluency in class action dynamics, and an unrelenting focus on efficient, strategic results consistent with our clients’ business objectives.
We have defended thousands of putative class actions in state and federal courts across the United States, including matters brought by top national plaintiffs’ firms. Our docket spans false advertising, antitrust, privacy and data security, labor and employment, product liability, and other practice areas. And our collaborative, multidisciplinary approach and expansive geographic footprint enable us to defend clients across a broad swath of industries and business sectors, including consumer products, financial services, technology, life sciences, energy, entertainment, and higher education.
We use motion practice and other tools to end disputes early and avoid the uncertainty, cost, and publicity of protracted litigation. When early resolution is not possible, our lawyers are fully prepared to litigate through class certification, summary judgment, and trial. We have an excellent track record in the most complex and contentious disputes, including cases requiring intensive discovery, expert testimony, appellate strategy, and creative solutions. We also have deep experience navigating multi-pronged threats, including parallel class proceedings, regulatory investigations, and mass arbitrations.
