We have particular expertise in responding to claims under the Unfair Competition Law (Business & Professions Code sections 17200 et seq.), and we have filed briefs in the California Supreme Court in many of the path-breaking UCL cases, including In re Tobacco Cases II (Brown) (2009) 46 Cal.4th 298, In re Tobacco Cases II (Daniels) (2007) 41 Cal.4th 1257, Korea Supply Co. v. Lockheed Martin Corp. (2003) 29 Cal.4th 1134, Kraus v. Trinity Management Services, Inc. (2000) 23 Cal.4th 116, Cel-Tech Communications, Inc. v. Los Angeles Cellular Telephone Co.

California Supreme Court amicus brief arguing that, under the UCL standing requirements imposed after Proposition 64, a trial court properly denies class certification where standing cannot readily be ascertained by litigation of common questions of law and fact, and courts should not create presumptions of consumer reliance to satisfy the commonality requirement for class certification.
