About
- Mark T. Cramer is a Shareholder in the Los Angeles office and Chair of the Firm’s Class Action Practice Group
- Mr. Cramer advises clients ranging from Fortune 50 corporations to start-up companies about how to manage actual and potential business disputes in the context of their overall business goals
- He collaborates with clients, their executives, and in-house counsel to formulate and implement customized litigation strategies
- For example, where the client’s primary business interest was to resolve litigation to make the company more attractive to a prospective buyer, he negotiated a quick and favorable settlement to eliminate the exposure associated with the lawsuit
- By contrast, when a large company was concerned that it was developing the reputation of being an easy mark for frivolous litigation, Mr. Cramer engineered a hard-nosed and aggressive defense that resulted in a complete victory for the client and sent a message to the plaintiff’s bar that the company would rather pay its attorneys than settle meritless claims
