Brandon is heavily involved in the firm’s data breach practice as well and has served as lead counsel in a number of data breach class actions.
Recently, Brandon has expanded the firm’s reach by helping to build the firm’s mass arbitration practice, which has resulted in settlements for hundreds of thousands of individuals. In this practice, Brandon combines cutting edge technology, automation, legal theories to secure recoveries for individuals who would otherwise not have the ability to go to court or participate in a class action.
Brandon attended St. Louis University School of Law, concentrated in Civil Litigation, won Best Appellant’s Brief in the Giles S. Rich Intellectual Property Moot Court Competition, and graduated with honors.
How we work
We have represented thousands of victims of investment fraud, against financial institutions that failed to discharge their duties and protect the investing public. Each case is different and our past successes are not indicative of future results; we will be glad to review your case and advise you as to your options, at no charge.
We generally represent investors on a “contingency fee” basis, meaning we do not charge any legal fees unless and until we recover money for you. Our general practice is to advance the case costs on the client’s behalf and recoup them out of (and up to) the amounts recovered. A few jurisdictions (states) require the client to be responsible for the case costs; whenever that is the case we explain to the client what those costs entail.
