Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Litigation

Our attorneys have litigated RICO claims in variety of contexts, including a multiyear litigation of insurance related allegations involving damages in excess of $1 billion.  We have successfully prosecuted claims on behalf of aggrieved plaintiffs and also protected defendants from these seemingly ubiquitous suits.  Our mastery of the technical requirements of the statute going back to its very beginnings allows us to obtain early dismissal of complaints that fail to meet the stringent pleading standards and, on the flip side, enables us to successfully withstand motion practice when we are representing injured claimants.
