Class Actions

Class actions are complex, multi-faceted, and require a significant long-term commitment. Not just any attorney can represent plaintiffs in a class action. When deciding whether to certify a case, courts analyze whether an attorney will fairly and adequately represent the class, looking at factors such as:

• Depth and quality of the pre-filing investigation;
• Relevant experience;
• Knowledge of applicable law; and
• Resources the attorney can and will commit to the case.
