CHARLESTON, W.Va., Feb. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bailey Glasser is pleased to announce the election of James Kauffman and Patrick Muench as partners in the firm. "We are proud to make this announcement as both James and Patrick have stood out in their legal practice and commitment to our clients," said Founding Partner Ben Bailey.
James Kauffman (Washington) concentrates his practice on complex business litigation and class actions specifically in the areas of consumer protection, business litigation, and securities. He has represented consumers, investors, state attorneys general, municipalities, and whistleblowers in a wide variety of disputes in both court and arbitration forums across the country. "James has distinguished himself in all of the cases he touches and shown remarkable professionalism while delivering exceptional client service," said Partner Jonathan Marshall.
