Class Action and Plaintiff Litigation

The primary focus of PS&W is plaintiff representation in large class action lawsuits. Representing consumer, business and employee groups or individuals, we have recovered substantial compensation in:

  • Antitrust — We serve as lead or co-lead counsel in numerous pending cases alleging price fixing collusion by major corporations with a global presence.
  • Employment (wage and hour) — We hold employers accountable for unpaid overtime, meal or rest breaks or other systemic employment law violations.
  • Defective products liability — We have sued manufacturers of automobiles, electronics, fire safety equipment, pharmaceuticals and other dangerous and defective products.
  • Consumer protection — We pursue damages for fraud, false advertising and other unfair business practices that prey upon consumers.
  • Securities litigation — We represent investors defrauded by misrepresentation or stock manipulations.

We also represent plaintiffs in professional liability claims against lawyers, physicians, accountants, investment brokers and other licensed professionals.

See Notable Class Actions for examples of past and pending litigation.
