Washington, D.C., September 7, 2022 — National law firm Bailey & Glasser, LLP is pleased to announce that Stephen Sorensen has joined the firm’s Washington, D.C. office as a partner in its Commercial and Environmental Litigation Practice Group. Stephen has dedicated his career to representing investor plaintiffs and bankruptcy trustees in many of the largest financial and accounting fraud cases. In 2018, he led the trial team that secured a $625 million verdict on behalf of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) against PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) which was the largest amount ever secured in a verdict against a global public accounting firm.

In a verdict reached today, a Rhode Island jury found Davol and C.R. Bard liable for injuries caused by their Ventralex polypropolene hernia mesh product. The jury awarded compensatory damages of $4.8 million to plaintiff Paul Trevino.

Bailey & Glasser, LLP won a unanimous jury verdict on behalf of Shonk Land Company on Friday, May 6, 2022. Our team proved that the Defendants in the case committed five separate breaches of Shonk’s contractual rights of first refusal. As a result of those verdicts, Shonk will be restored as the rightful owner of 16,000-plus acres of valuable oil & gas property. In addition, Bailey & Glasser, LLP proved that the Defendants committed an intentional trespass, slandered Shonk’s title, tortiously interfered with Shonk’s rights, and were thereby unjustly enriched. In all, and in addition to its 16,000-plus acres of land, the jury awarded Shonk over $4.1 million in damages.
