Judicial Praise

Lieff Cabraser is "one of the most foremost law firms in the country in both securities law and class actions."

-- U.S. District Court Judge William Alsup

"Counsel for the plaintiffs did a very good job in a very tough situation of achieving an excellent recovery for the class here. You were opposed by extremely capable lawyers. It was an uphill battle... The recovery that was achieved is remarkable, almost a hundred percent."

-- U.S. District Judge Susan Illston on Lieff Cabraser's work in Claghorn v. Edsaco

"It is highly unusual for a class action in the securities area to recover anywhere close to the percentage of loss that has been recovered here, and counsel and the lead plaintiffs have done an admirable job in bringing about this most satisfactory conclusion of the litigation."

-- U.S. District Judge Vaughn R. Walker on the nearly 100% recovery for the class in the California Micro Devices Securities Litigation
