Class Action Defense

We have deep experience representing clients who face large numbers of class actions. We are long-time counsel for Home Depot and Equifax in class actions nationwide, and we have represented other companies such as Chevron, General Motors, GSK, Kimberly-Clark, Wal-Mart, ConocoPhillips, The Coca-Cola Company, Purdue Pharma and Progressive Insurance in class actions around the country. These clients are sophisticated consumers of the services that our practice offers, and for years, we have proven adept at partnering with these clients to defend class action claims. Our experience and value has also benefited clients who face class litigation less frequently, whether in cases that are viewed as mere nuisance or those that challenge significant business practices.

Our success in class actions stems from our unparalleled experience. We have learned the defenses and arguments that are most likely to prevail on behalf of our clients, whether on the merits or in defense of class certification, and we know enough to recognize those claims that are more appropriate for early or class-wide resolution. Trusting our class action practice allows our clients to tap into this experience and know-how.
