Todd B. Hilsee was the first person judicially accepted and recognized as an expert on class action notice in published decisions in the United States, See In re Domestic Air Transp. Litig., 141 F.R.D. 534, (N.D. Ga., 1992). Hilsee brought to courts the use of media audience data to quantify the “net reach” of class members, and brought “noticeable” notice designs as well. Mr. Hilsee was the only notice expert invited to testify before the Advisory Committee on Civil Rules of the Judicial Conference of the United States about the plain language amendment to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, and subsequently collaborated to write and design the illustrative “model” plain language notices for the Federal Judicial Center, including detailed notices, summary notices and envelopes, now at www.fjc.gov. He was the first notice expert recognized in Canada under the Ontario Class Proceedings Act of 1992, See Wilson v. Servier Canada, Inc., 49 C.P.C. (4th) 233, [2000] O.J. No. 3392). Mr. Hilsee has written numerous articles on notice and due process, including law review and journal articles such as “Do You Really Want Me to Know My Rights? The Ethics Behind Due Process in Class Action Notice Is More Than Just Plain Language: A Desire to Actually Inform,” 18 Georgetown Journal of Legal Ethics 1359 (Fall 2005); and “Hurricanes, Mobility and Due Process. The ‘Desire to Inform’ Requirement for Effective Class Notice is Highlighted by Katrina,” 80 Tulane Law Review 1771 (June 2006). An American Marketing Association Effie award winner, he has lectured and/or been featured in educational DVD’s and materials used during many bar association panels and symposiums, and at law schools including Harvard, Columbia, Temple, Cleveland-Marshall, and Tulane.Specialties: Expert Testimony on Legal Notice IssuesReach and Frequency Media Analysis/TestimonyPlain Language Legal Notice Analysis/TestimonyNoticeable Notice Design Analysis/TestimonyPublic Speaking, Writing, and Teaching on Legal Notice Issues
