Class Actions
Crowell & Moring LLP has one of the nation's premier class action practices. Our litigators handle the most sophisticated class actions across a wide array of industries in both federal and state courts nationwide. Our track record of success in defending class actions spans the firm's practice areas, from antitrust to products and torts to securities to labor and employment. We are also experienced on the plaintiffs' side of class actions, representing opt-out claimants and named plaintiffs in pursuit of individual and classwide relief.
Our class action practice draws upon our deep litigation expertise coupled with our knowledge of the industries, and practice areas, at issue. It also frequently brings into play our national coordination management skills, in which Crowell & Moring has special expertise. We are expert in the rules, procedures and strategies involved in coordinating complex cases, through the Judicial Panel for Multi-District Litigation and otherwise, as well as other litigation coordination techniques designed to leverage favorable substantive rulings across jurisdictions and minimize duplicative discovery and litigation expense. Crowell & Moring attorneys are involved in Advisory Committee efforts to reform Rule 23; and lecture on class action developments.
