History
We have been involved in major and historic legal cases, including the successful reopening of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case of Korematsu v. the United States (overturning Fred Korematsu's criminal conviction for refusing government exclusion orders aimed at Japanese Americans during WWII based on the prosecution's misrepresentations and falsified evidence presented to the United States Supreme Court in 1944) that led to reparations for interned Japanese Americans; Popov vs. Hayashi (dispute over Barry Bonds' record- breaking 73rd home run ball); and Donnelly vs. U.S. Department of Agriculture (class action sexual harassment/retaliation case). Through these and other newsworthy cases, the firm's work has been spotlighted in national media coverage, including 60 Minutes, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox, Court TV, the New York Times and the Washington Post. The firm has gained significant experience in navigating high profile cases before local and national news media.
