A consummate professional who delivered an outstanding result

Our company faced a complex and high-stakes ERISA class action lawsuit concerning alleged excessive fees in our retirement plan. The situation was daunting, but engaging Lars Golumbic was the best decision we made. His deep, 27-year expertise in this niche area was immediately evident. He didn't just react to the litigation; he provided a masterclass in strategic defense, drawing on his recognized leadership as co-chair of his firm's litigation practice. Lars and his team conducted a meticulous, fact-intensive analysis that dismantled the plaintiffs' claims. His calm, authoritative demeanor was a steadying force for our entire executive team throughout the multi-year process. The case was resolved on highly favorable terms, protecting our company and our employees' plan. His 'Lawyer of the Year' recognitions are well-deserved. We have the utmost confidence in his counsel.
