We have defended such claims from the investigative phase to victories in trial and appellate courts, as well as in arbitrations throughout the country. We have handled cases involving claims alleging breach of contract, discrimination of all types, sexual and other harassment, whistleblowing, retaliation, wage/hour violations, trade secret theft, noncompetition agreements, employee raiding, stock and stock option disputes, and officer fiduciary duties. We have also successfully pursued trade secret misappropriation and related claims against former employees in both criminal and civil arenas.
In the class action realm, our practitioners are experienced in class certification contests, negotiation and creative structuring of class action settlements and, when necessary, trial of class actions. In multi-district class action litigation, we have successfully moved to transfer class actions from district courts around the country to a single district court for coordinated or consolidated proceedings and served as lead counsel after transfer.
