For the second consecutive year, Labaton Keller Sucharow has been named a “Securities Group of the Year” by Law360, underscoring the Firm’s unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional results for institutional investors.  This prestigious honor recognizes firms whose groundbreaking achievements continue to leave a lasting impact on the securities litigation landscape.

Highlighting the Firm’s deep commitment to its clients, Partner Michael P. Canty underscores trust as a defining value of the Firm: “We have clients that trust us, so that when they know there's been a failure of the markets and they've been defrauded, they know they're going to get best-in-class service from Labaton if they decide to use us to bring the case on behalf of the class.”

The many notable victories highlighted in the profile include a $200 million settlement against Uber on investor claims that the rideshare company’s leadership touted efforts to reform its culture, workplace practices, and reputation while allegedly concealing risks such as slowing growth, sexual assault allegations, and government probes; a $126.3 million settlement on behalf of investors against Alta Mesa Resources arising from shareholder claims related to its 2017 merger; a $125 million settlement on behalf of Discovery investors concerning the company’s merger with AT&T; and a $123 million settlement resolving derivative claims over Walmart’s opioid prescription oversight practices.  Other successes noted include settlements against Okta ($60 million), Olaplex ($47.5 million), and Cornerstone Building Brands ($45 million).

Noting Labaton’s exceptional leadership team, the profile discusses Eric J. Belfi’s elevation to Chairman following the tragic passing of Christopher J. Keller earlier in 2025.  Michael notes that the Firm’s successes reflect “its leadership's long view of the future, both of which have guided its work building on Christopher Keller's legacy in the months since his death in April.”  Managing Partner Jonathan Gardner further reflects, saying, “Chris was a leader in the legal profession and an exceptional advocate. He was principled, creative, and fearless—a trailblazing lawyer who cared deeply about his clients and colleagues. His contributions to the pursuit of justice will be felt for generations.”

We are honored to receive continued recognition for our unwavering commitment to securing justice for investors and safeguarding market integrity.
