    Class Actions

    Class-action lawsuits are entities unto themselves, with different procedural rules and processes. Because of the collective action requirements — commonality, typicality and numerosity — class-action cases can present a company with burdensome and high-exposure litigation. At Yoka & Smith, LLP, our lawyers are experienced in the law and with the judges in the complex courts in defending both class actions, and have the resources and expertise to efficiently and effectively defend these actions regardless of the scope.

    Complex Torts

    "Complex tort action" is more than a simple description of a legal claim that is complicated; it is a legal term of art, by statutory definition or by Judicial Counsel order. Complex actions can proceed by other than the Code of Civil Procedure, and, rather, by any rules ordered by the court that do not conflict with due process.

    In complex tort claims, the stakes are high, the playing field is different than in other cases and the protracted nature of these trials can be costly. At Yoka & Smith, LLP, we are experienced in the defense of complex tort actions. We are familiar with the judges in the complex courts and the procedures used for complex tort claims, and have the resources and experience to efficiently and effectively defend our clients against the most challenging and aggressive claims.
