Tell us about your biggest client wins this year. A Ninth Circuit three-judge panel ruled that a California district court had correctly ordered Oracle to arbitrate a dispute with our client, a former Oracle sale employee who filed a putative class action over unpaid compensation. The plaintiff has accused the company of withholding some $150 million in commission wages owed to its sales force. Sanford Heisler Sharp also successfully defeated a Rule 23(f) petition by Alaska Communications Systems to overturn an Alaska court’s decision to certify an overtime class action. The win clears the way for the class litigation to proceed.
What’s the best lesson you learned as a young lawyer? Take clients you believe in. Think outside of the box. Push the envelope and triple-check your facts.
