Greenberg Traurig's Robert Herrington Authors Best-Selling Book, Verdict for the Defense

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Robert J. Herrington, a first-chair trial attorney representing businesses in complex, high-stakes litigation in Greenberg Traurig's Los Angeles office, recently released his book, Verdict for the Defense, which provides a blueprint for business leaders to defend their companies against the growing risk of mass action and class action liability.  Published by Sutton Hart Press,  Herrington's book has been well received, making it the best selling legal and business title for Sutton Hart Press for the third quarter of 2011.

A significant focus of Herrington's practice involves defending clients facing class action claims in false advertising, unfair competition, consumer products, financial services, and insurance.  Herrington's practice also focuses on helping business leaders proactively organize their companies' processes to try to minimize the risk of being swept into class action litigation.

"I find it key to understand the client's business and how disputes impact their business objectives," said Herrington. "My goal is to raise awareness of the risk of class action and mass tort litigation and to share my experience and ideas for proactive, defensive action."

Herrington is presenting on How Technology and Internet Companies Can Protect Themselves Against Class Actions and Lawsuit Abuse on December 6 in Greenberg Traurig's Silicon Valley office.
