Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP

While it is best known for its securities litigation work for aggrieved investors, Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP also has a sizeable offering on behalf of plaintiffs seeking recourse for damage caused by product defects. Led out of the firm’s Florida office by name partner Paul Geller, the firm’s consumer fraud and privacy group has, in recent years, been at the forefront of several major consumer class actions. Many of the firm’s successes have arisen out of the sprawling opiate MDL, with San Francisco-based Aelish Marie Baig securing a series of high-profile victories holding manufacturers, distributors, and pharmacies, among others, accountable for their roles in facilitating the opioid crisis. Florida-based Stuart Davidson is also a key member of the team, particularly in light of his skill at handling large consumer class actions involving deceptive and unfair trade practices, privacy and data breach issues, and antitrust violations.
