About Warren
Biography
Selecting a lawyer for your case is a very important decision. You want a lawyer who understands your concerns and will fight to achieve your goals. You want a lawyer who believes in our system and knows how to succeed in it. And most importantly you want a lawyer who is going to give you candid and meaningful advice. I am that lawyer.
I focus my practice on high-stakes, multidistrict antitrust litigation, along with other complex class action and commercial cases. I have handled numerous cases involving price fixing, monopolization, breach of contract, intellectual property, business torts, consumer protection statutes, and accounting malpractice.
I achieve results. In 2012, I helped lead a trial team that took the first mortgage-backed-securities related case to trial. In a landmark and game-changing trial, we secured a $106 million judgment on behalf of our client and obtained key pre-trial determinations that had a domino effect in related cases.
I want to know more about your case and to see if there is a way I can help you. I look forward to talking with you.
