Over the years, Robins Kaplan trial lawyers developed a track record for ­litigating and negotiating complex cases resulting in verdicts and ­settlements worth hundreds of millions or even ­billions of dollars for their plaintiff ­clients.

Last year was no exception for the Minneapolis-based litigation firm, with notable victories in antitrust and mass tort cases — some of international scope — involving leveraged buyouts, air freight services, auto parts and hip implants.

“We want our clients and adversaries to know that being from Minnesota doesn't mean we're less effective than lawyers in New York. We get great results,” said firm partner Craig Wildfang, co-chairman of the antitrust and trade regulation group.
