BLB&G has been named a finalist in both individual and firmwide categories as part of The American Lawyer Industry Awards. The firm is up for National Boutique/Specialty Litigation Department of the Year, and partner Jeroen van Kwawegen is a nominee for Litigator of the Year. The winners will be announced at an awards dinner on November 13 at Cipriani Wall Street in New York.
These nominations highlight the firm’s exceptional securities class action achievements in 2023-24, securing billions of dollars for investors in high-profile cases such as Wells Fargo ($1 billion recovery) and Kraft Heinz ($450 million recovery). Jeroen’s standout contributions include the landmark decision overturning Elon Musk’s $55 billion compensation package in Richard Tornetta v. Elon Musk et al. and Tesla, Inc., and the ongoing securities fraud litigation against Meta Platforms, where Meta allegedly misled shareholders about the platform’s harmful effects on users.
