When it comes to high-stakes litigation, few types of cases pose a more significant threat to a company than class-action lawsuits or the prospect of an MDL. Our Class Action Litigation and MDL team provide a full spectrum of guidance and perspective that goes beyond a company’s needs in the courtroom and provide critical strategy designed to mitigate the risk of regulatory investigations and regulatory litigation which often arises from class action litigation. Bressler’s veteran Class Action and MDL litigation attorneys offer the experience and resources needed to guide our clients through these most challenging litigation scenarios.
