Representative Matters
- Served as counsel in securing at summary judgment a permanent injunction against the California Office of State Controller, enjoining the enforcement of two invalid regulations related to the escheatment of unclaimed life insurance benefits
- Served as lead counsel for a real estate development company in obtaining, through mediation, a favorable settlement with respect to a real estate contract dispute, allowing the developer to proceed with a multi-million-dollar multi-use development in the District of Columbia
- Served as counsel in securing a preliminary injunction against the U.S. Department of Labor in litigation challenging aspects of DOL's Fiduciary Rule. The federal district court for the District of Minnesota enjoined DOL from enforcing the Best Interest Contract Exemption's anti-arbitration condition against the client, a major life insurer. This condition in DOL's BIC Exemption Rule would prohibit financial institutions from resolving disputes on an individual basis in arbitration and instead would require financial institutions to entertain judicial class actions in lawsuits arising out of Best Interest Contracts
- Represented a global aerospace company in a multi-million-dollar government contracts dispute in the Court of Federal Claims
- Represented a major financial institution with respect to a multi-million-dollar False Claims Act qui tam action in the Southern District of Florida
