Robins Kaplan’s Antitrust Class Action Practice Recognized as Leader In The Field For Fourth Consecutive Year

Robins Kaplan LLP is pleased to announce that the firm received top rankings in the 2021 Antitrust Annual Report produced by The Huntington National Bank and the Center for Litigation and Courts at UC Hastings College of Law.

The 2021 Antitrust Annual Report compiles data from all antitrust class actions litigated in United States Federal Court from 2009 through 2021. Now in its fourth year, the report provides a data-driven analysis of the volume of antitrust class action complaints filed each year, average times to settlement, recoveries, law firms representing plaintiffs and defendants, and more.

Robins Kaplan is ranked among the leading firms in four categories:

• Top 50 Cases with Settlements Reaching Final Approval 2009-2021
• Top 25 Lead Counsel in Complaints Filed
• Top 25 Lead Counsel in Number of Settlements Filed
• Top 25 Lead Counsel in Class Recovery

“Our antitrust attorneys have worked tirelessly to obtain justice for our clients in some of the most high-profile antitrust class actions to ever be litigated,” said Kellie Lerner, Co-Chair of Robins Kaplan’s Antitrust Group. “In the past year alone, we have reached $100 million in settlements in In re Contact Lenses Antitrust Litigation and settled a class action against Pharma Bro Martin Shkrelli and his company within months of our initial filing in In re Daraprim Antitrust Litigation. It is an honor to be recognized for our achievements and we look forward to another decade of precedent-setting success.”

Stacey Slaughter, Co-Chair of Robins Kaplan’s Antitrust Group, agrees: “Our firm has a long track record of prosecuting innovative antitrust cases. From the Minnesota Tobacco litigation to Private Equity, we’ve pioneered new theories and advanced the discussion for decades now. Those cases, along with our recent successes, demonstrate that our firm’s lawyers don’t just practice law, we make history.”
