We also help design and roll out AI governance programs, tools and processes clarifying prohibited and encouraged AI use, freeing employees to confidently pursue AI opportunities via encouraged use.
Class Action Defense
We frequently advise clients on how to remediate their websites and mobile applications. In resolving these claims, we focus first on website remediation and documenting relevant compliance scores. If a lawsuit has been filed, if a dismissal or resolution is not obtained in the matter, we also have deep experience litigating these claims with a technology-focused strategy and by demonstrating compliance with recognized standards.
Customer data runs today's businesses but brings lawsuits from misuse, breaches, and ransomware. We fight these class actions for companies handling sensitive information, including matters with millions of dollars and the threat of existential brand damage at stake. Our deep experience in navigating a rapidly evolving legal regime makes us the right team to entrust. Our team handles claims of bad data use, lawsuits after breaches, and cyber privacy cases. We specialize in data breach defense, cyber incident response, privacy compliance fights, ransomware suits, cloud security disputes, and cyber insurance recovery for tech, finance, healthcare, and professional service clients.
Our team designs focused, practical strategies to challenge false advertising class claims for clients in virtually every industry. We combine deep knowledge of advertising and consumer protection laws with our unparalleled class action defense experience. This blend allows us to develop creative approaches in discount, gift card, junk fee, slack fill, auto renewal and other false advertising class actions aimed at early dismissal, narrowing claims, or favorable resolution.
Our experience spans all manner of privacy class actions, from alleged violations of specific federal and state privacy laws—like the California Consumer Privacy Act, Secure Communications Act, Wiretap Act, and Biometric Information Privacy Act—to cases asserting more general claims involving consumers’ personal data, such as the common law intrusion upon seclusion and violation of constitutional privacy rights.
Plaintiffs often bring these cases on behalf of putative classes that number in the thousands or even millions, so they bring potential exposure in the millions of dollars and the risk of business interruption from threatened injunctive relief.
We aim for a swift and efficient disposition of the case. When that is not desired or achievable, we have the breadth and depth of experience necessary to litigate privacy class actions from beginning to end. We have successfully obtained dismissals via motion to dismiss, summary judgment, defeated class certification, negotiated walkaways or favorable individual and class settlements, and obtained court approval of class settlements.
Class action product liability lawsuits target manufacturers and sellers over alleged defects in design, manufacturing, or warnings that cause harm. We defeat these high-risk cases nationwide by challenging class certification early, attacking causation, and using strong defenses like comparative fault and state-of-the-art design. Our team blends proven class action expertise with deep product liability experience across consumer goods, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, automotive parts, and industrial equipment. Our approach safeguards entire supply chains—from manufacturers to distributors—with dismissals, narrowed claims, and favorable resolutions that protect operations and reputations.
Securities class actions let investors sue companies when stock drops after alleged fraud or misleading statements during a specific period. We fight these investor lawsuits nationwide, protecting public companies, executives, and board members from massive damage claims. Our team beats these cases by challenging "lead plaintiff" status, attacking the class period, proving no reliance on statements, and showing losses came from market factors—not company wrongdoing. We handle everything from motion to dismiss through appeals while coordinating with D&O insurers and managing public perception.
TCPA class actions target companies for unwanted calls, texts, or faxes without consent, creating massive liability under federal law plus state mini-TCPA equivalents like Florida's FTSA. We fight these high-volume suits nationwide by challenging consent, attacking auto dialer use after Supreme Court rulings, defeating do-not-call list claims, and blocking class certification through individualized defenses. We handle everything from robocall allegations and prerecorded message claims to STOP request failures and internal DNC policy challenges, protecting retailers, lenders, healthcare providers, and telemarketers while coordinating TCPA compliance audits and risk mitigation programs.
