Milberg Named to NLJ’s 2010 Plaintiffs’ Hot List

Milberg LLP was named to the National Law Journal’s 2010 Plaintiffs’ Hot List for their “exemplary, cutting-edge work” on cases with “substantial verdicts or settlements between the summer of 2009 and 2010,” the firm said in a press release.

In recognizing Milberg’s litigation achievements over the past year, the NLJ singled out the firm’s trial result in In re Vivendi Universal S.A. Sec. Litig., No. 02-5571 (S.D.N.Y.) The NLJ also noted that Milberg is responsible for nearly 50 percent of the $18.5 billion recoveries and verdicts reported by Hot List firms in 2010.

“[Milberg] secured $1.44 billion in total recovery for its clients and achieved 10 settlements,” NLJ said. “A federal district judge went on record that the firm has ‘perhaps unrivaled experience in securities class actions.’”

Milberg LLP is widely recognized as a premier class action and complex litigation firm. Founded in 1965, Milberg has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Tampa and Detroit.
