Freeborn’s class action lawyers defend and prosecute class action litigation in both state and federal courts.

In the class action context, experience is critical to success in defending what can turn out to be “bet the company” litigation for our clients. Freeborn's litigators have significant experience defending class action matters in state and federal courts and in a wide range of commercial disputes, including consumer fraud, antitrust, securities, product liability, labor and employment, ERISA, mass tort, false advertising and those brought under federal and state unfair competition statutes. 

Our experience enables us to assess the merits of an action at the earliest stages and develop strategies to resolve the matter while minimizing expense, whether through motions to dismiss, defeating class certification or decertifying the class. Where early resolution is not possible, we develop cost-effective discovery strategies with our in-house E-Discovery Lab.  

Unlike many law firms, we have a reputation for bringing big cases to trial when it is in our client’s interest to do so. And, where appropriate, we also have the experience to navigate favorable resolutions of class actions via settlement.
