Berman Tabacco

Mehr Information
Berman Tabacco is active in many fora across the US through its offices in San Francisco, California, and Boston, Massachusetts, and acting predominantly for state pension funds. Nicole Lavallee, who is managing partner of the San Francisco office, and Leslie Stern in Boston are the lead partners. Founding partner Joseph Tabacco in San Francisco is highly acclaimed for his work on anti-trust and securities fraud cases. Working with Lavallee, Tabacco helped to secure settlements with four foreign defendants for Utah Retirement Systems  in In re Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc. Securities Litigation, which concerned a fraudulent scheme in which the company’s founder and former officers and directors allegedly overstated the company’s income and revenue and issued false and misleading financial statements. Also in San Francisco, Daniel Barenbaum is ‘super-responsive and incredibly competent’, leading one client to remark that ’if you’ve got a fire drill, Daniel is the lawyer to call’. Barenbaum worked with Lavallee to secure a settlement in Hayden v. Portola Pharmaceuticals Inc., et al., on behalf of Alameda County Employees’ Retirement Association.
