CLASS ACTION

class action lawyers

We are proven leaders in developing the merits of new claims.


When groups of people suffer similar or related losses a class action lawsuit may enable our firm to effectively leverage these claims into a single lawsuit. Federal and state courts have unique procedures that govern these cases. A judge must allow the lawsuit to proceed as a class action and determine whether the plaintiff and the attorneys are qualified to represent the class, for example. Our trial lawyers are experienced in these procedures and are dedicated to helping the injured find justice, including through class action litigation.

Class Action Litigation

C/P/R has over four decades of experience in developing the merits of new claims and a history of proven leadership in class actions litigation. We have obtained numerous multi-million dollar recoveries in complex class action litigation cases involving securities fraud, shareholder derivative, antitrust, consumer, and pharmaceutical fraud.
