‘Meitar is the best firm I've worked with in recent years. It has a great team of litigators with expertise in diving into complex issues and litigating. The firm also has a great commercial team.’
‘Nadav Weissman is a great litigator. Israel Leshem is a great litigator and commercial lawyer.’
‘The Meitar team is extremely knowledgeable about class actions, which are common in Israel. It is particularly strong in pharma class actions, where I believe it is the best in Israel with nobody else coming close. It also has a strong ability to work with foreign clients, who may not be familiar with Israeli procedures.’
‘Ron Peleg is "Mr Pharmaceutical Litigation" in Israel. He understands the industry incredibly well and is literally the best pharmaceutical class action lawyer in Israel. He has built a strong team around him, which benefits from his experience — many of them have been doing this work for many years.’
