Comments on: Why plaintiffs’ lawyers would rather sue Facebook than JPMorgan http://blogs.reuters.com/alison-frankel/2012/05/25/why-plaintiffs-lawyers-would-rather-sue-facebook-than-jpmorgan/ On the Case Mon, 17 Jun 2013 21:30:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: EllieK http://blogs.reuters.com/alison-frankel/2012/05/25/why-plaintiffs-lawyers-would-rather-sue-facebook-than-jpmorgan/#comment-229 EllieK Tue, 29 May 2012 11:58:55 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/alison-frankel/?p=1074#comment-229 At first I thought that "Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro, Girard Gibbs, Wolf Haldenstein Adler Freeman & Herz" was a single law firm due to the bold font. (Can you tell that I am not familiar with plaintiff law firms?) Regardless, you are so right about them, even after appropriate parsing. And this too: "(inevitably) Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd".
