What we say about the firm's legal practice in United States
Litigation
Within Mass tort and class action: plaintiff representation – antitrust, Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll LLP is a second tier firm,
Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll LLP exclusively represents plaintiffs in complex class actions, for which it enjoys a strong reputation nationally and internationally. Antitrust is one of the firm’s core focuses. The practice is made up of ‘top-flight litigators’, operating predominantly from Washington DC and New York as well as Philadelphia and Chicago, with Richard Koffman particularly singled out for praise. Koffman is leading a team from the firm as co-lead counsel for plaintiffs in a number of matters including In re Urethane Antitrust Litigation, Wallach et al v Eaton Corp et al and In re Plasma-Derivative Protein Therapies Antitrust Litigation. Plaintiffs in the latter class action allege a multi-year conspiracy to restrict the supply of plasma-derivative protein therapies in order to artificially inflate the price of these therapies. The plaintiffs’ steering committee filed a consolidated amended complaint in June 2010 which names the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA) as a new defendant to join CSL, CSL Behring and Baxter International.
