The proof is in the pudding. Over the past ten years our firm has obtained terrific results on behalf of our clients. We take just as much pride in the class action settlement as we do in the individual settlements. Some of the results below occurred without us having to file a lawsuit and some occurred after a lawsuit was filed. A sampling of some of our results are below.
