“The team at Milberg London are consistently innovative, strategic and thorough in everything they do.”
Milberg London is a preeminent law firm with a reputation for excellence in complex multi-party disputes primarily in large-scale group litigation. Since launching Milberg London in 2020, the team have established themselves at the forefront of some of the highest-profile claims going through the English Courts.
Milberg’s small team of expert litigators specialise in consumer redress for large groups of claimants. We have secured over £90 million of litigation funding in support of our cases. We combine this with decades of combines experience in commercial and banking litigation and retain a commercial litigation practice which acts for institutions and high net worth individuals. The team have a track record of acting for clients across a broad range of industries and markets including financial markets and products, private equity , hedge funds, data protection, shareholder and companies’ issues, fraud, and mis-selling.
Uniquely, Milberg has in-house scientific and engineering expertise such that we lead in both legal analysis and expert evidence on technically complex cases.
James, Polly, Ed and JT worked together for many years at Mishcon de Reya. In 2020, James, Polly and Ed launched Milberg London and JT wasn’t far behind. Natasha also joined Milberg London from Mishcon. Although the team hadn’t historically worked together, Natasha’s sterling reputation was well known and the stars aligned for Milberg London to launch it’s competition practice with Natasha at the helm in 2021.
Milberg London’s strategy is focused on bringing magic-circle quality to the Claimant side of group litigation, building a compact law firm with a high talent density, able to be both strategic but also fleet of foot. Our goal is to deliver exceptional value to our clients and stakeholders whilst keeping law breaking corporations honest and compliant by creating moral hazard.
We have strong relationships with the main litigation funders in the London market (including ALF members) and are increasingly looking to the larger US funding market for investment. We are highly experienced in negotiating ATE insurance policies, sourcing funding to support claims negotiating funding agreements and leading group action steering committees to run claims cost effectively and with appropriate downside protection.
Many of our cases tackle important societal issues such as the environment, consumer protection and access to justice. The future is promising as we continue to shape the consumer protection landscape by investigating a variety of cases in adjacent areas.
