In “The Top 100 Settlements of All Time” report published by Securities Class Action Services (SCAS - a division of ISS Governance), an analysis of the data demonstrates that BLB&G continues to eclipse its competitors in numerous important metrics. According to the report, BLB&G has 1) obtained six of the top twelve largest recoveries in history 2) recovered nearly 40% of all the settlement dollars represented in the report (nearly $25 billion – billions more than any other firm on the list); and 3) prosecuted over a third of all the cases on the list (35 of 100) — more than another firm in the field.
Widely praised by the courts and their adversaries in the courtroom, BLB&G continues to be one of the undisputed leaders in the nation representing investors in securities litigation.
The Top 100 Settlements Semi-Annual Report identifies the largest securities class action settlements filed after the passage of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that have obtained final approval, and provides detailed information on the law firms prosecuting those cases.
Since SCAS began compiling and publishing data on securities litigation recoveries and the law firms prosecuting the cases over a decade ago, BLB&G has been at or near the top of their rankings every year — often with the highest total recoveries, the highest settlement average, or both.
