Bringing claims to fast resolution
Class action lawsuits present serious threats to defendants. They raise the prospect of prolonged and draining litigation, not to mention the possibility of substantial awards at trial. Stuart focuses his practice on eliminating those threats. He prides himself on being efficient, cutting short claims that otherwise could lag in the courts for years. Whether he does it by negotiating favorable settlements or getting cases dismissed, he is always looking to avoid expensive discovery and litigation battles.
