As Global Co-Chair and a founding partner at Hausfeld based in the firm’s Washington, DC office, I have extensive experience representing U.S. and international businesses in complex litigation at the trial and appellate levels. I am particularly experienced in litigating and resolving antitrust claims in U.S. and European courts, recovering billions of dollars for my clients and the classes I have represented.The ability to tackle and find solutions for the most novel legal issues, as well as represent my clients at all stages of global antitrust litigation is demonstrated in my broad experience. This unique combination enables me to counsel and act for my clients comprehensively, in a commercially sensitive manner, and wherever necessary.I also serve as President of CertifiKID (www.certifikid.com), co-founded with my wife Jamie who is the company's CEO. CertifiKID was the first daily deal website geared specifically to families and has been recognized as one of the best deal websites for parents by CNBC, The Washington Post, and Washingtonian magazine, offering all that families want and need at significantly reduced prices. In 2019, Jamie and I appeared on the popular ABC television show Shark Tank and cut a deal with Kevin O’Leary (a/k/a “Mr. Wonderful”), which was one of the top five biggest investments he has made in ten seasons of the show. In 2020, CertifiKID acquired Macaroni KID (www.macaronikid.com), creating one of the largest parent-focused digital media and advertising companies in the country, reaching millions of families nationwide.
