Among his matters, Mr. Reiter prevailed at trial on behalf of the State Bar of California in a high-profile whistleblower retaliation dispute and obtained the dismissal of claims against PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and seven of its partners.
Mr. Reiter also has an active appellate practice. Mr. Reiter drafted the successful petition for a writ of certiorari and merits briefing in Nutraceutical Corp. v. Lambert, 586 U.S. ___ (2019). The Supreme Court of the United States unanimously decided the case in our client’s favor in a decision that has significant implications for class actions and civil procedure.
In every case, Mr. Reiter uses his courtroom experience, creative strategies, and aggressive approach to streamline litigation and achieve the client’s desired result.

Nutraceutical v. Lambert. Obtained a unanimous opinion at the Supreme Court of the United States in favor of Nutraceutical. The Court adopted our arguments that the Rule 23(f) deadline to file an interlocutory appeal of a class-certification decision, and all other mandatory claim-processing rules, are unsusceptible to equitable exceptions. This preserves our victory at the lower court, where Hueston Hennigan obtained decertification of the putative plaintiff class.
