  • Engage in settlement negotiations, mediations, and court-supervised settlement conferences to resolve class action disputes
  • Stay current on emerging trends in class action litigation, including California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) claims, wage-and-hour enforcement, and evolving federal class action standards

Requirements:
