Profile

Located in Center City, Philadelphia, Berger & Montague, P.C. is one of the nation’s leaders in complex and class action litigation. Dedicated to representing plaintiffs who have suffered injury, discrimination or exploitation, the firm helps clients who often have no other place to turn for help. With a staff of more than 60 lawyers and 14 paralegals, the firm gives victims of securities, antitrust, health care and environmental disasters the power to stand up to large institutions and formidable opponents.

A STORIED HISTORY

For nearly 40 years, the firm has been at the forefront of pioneering work in plaintiffs’ class action law and complex litigation. Berger & Montague made its mark early, representing plaintiffs in a series of antitrust class actions; today, it is one of the largest plaintiffs’ class action firms in the country. The firm has been instrumental in extending the use of the class action procedure to other litigation areas.

PRACTICE AREAS

Berger & Montague represents consumers and businesses harmed by anticompetitive and deceptive trade practices, public security holders victimized by fraud, people exposed to hazardous substances, and victims of civil and human rights abuses. Beyond recovering billions of dollars in awards for clients, the firm’s lawyers have been instrumental in establishing new law and forging the path for recovery for victims of fraud and other wrongdoing.

Among the noted cases over the years in which Berger & Montague has been in a leadership position are: Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Litigation, Connecticut Tobacco Antitrust Litigation, Rite-Aid Securities Litigation, Waste Management Securities Litigation, Rocky Flats Nuclear Weapons Plant Environmental Litigation, In re Cardizem CD Antitrust Litigation, High Fructose Corn Syrup Antitrust Litigation, School Asbestos Litigation, Bogosian v. Gulf Oil, Sunbeam, Inc. Securities Litigation, Brand Name Prescription Drugs Antitrust Case, and Drexel Burnham Lambert Group Securities Litigation. The firm continues to be active in all these areas of complex litigation.

This year, Berger & Montague congratulates the 11 attorneys in the firm who have been listed in Super Lawyers® magazine for their outstanding work on behalf of victims who would not otherwise have a voice.
