Wage-and-hour, misclassification, and related claims on behalf of workers.
Experience includes representing an indenture trustee and institutional bondholders, the plaintiffs in a multi-court anti-counterfeiting action against hundreds of defendants, and a law firm facing malpractice and fraud claims.
