Work On Cases that Matter

• Two of our lawyers were recently named as liaison counsel and plaintiffs Steering Committee counsel to represent a consumer class in a major data breach class action against Marriott International Inc. The plaintiffs allege that Marriott compromised the personal data of 500 million guests of its Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide properties.
• We represent a former occupational therapist who sued her former employer and several nursing homes for committing Medicare fraud by submitting improper bills. The opposing parties settled the case for more than $9.7 million.
• We represented the campaign of Maryland Governor Larry Hogan in his successful effort to continue using an apple insignia to represent his support by teachers in Maryland. The state teachers union had sought a court injunction to stop the campaign from using the insignia on the grounds that it infringed on the union’s service mark. A judge denied the injunction.
