Attorney Kane Successfully Resolves Federal & State Class Action Suits

Attorney Brian Kane successfully resolved both federal and state class action lawsuits involving alleged violations of the Federal Credit Reporting Act on behalf of a credit reporting agency. The allegations related to the publication of alleged inaccurate background checks by the credit reporting agency and a national personal information aggregator. The national consumer protection plaintiff’s firm claimed a putative class of more than 25,000 members. Attorney Kane aggressively defended the class representative claim resulting in a settlement that avoided a ruling on the requested class certification.
