Description

• Wolf Popper is a leading firm in the field of class action litigation, particularly in the areas of securities fraud, mergers and acquisitions, ERISA, and consumer fraud. Wolf Popper also practices international corporate and commercial law (including B, H and L visas), international arbitration, and antitrust. Since its founding, Wolf Popper has recovered more than $1 billion for its clients. In the past five years, Wolf Popper has recovered $280 million for investors in Residential Mortgage Backed Securities issued by an affiliate of JP Morgan, $265 million for investors in the Fairfield Greenwich Fund (a feeder fund to the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme), and $45 million for the State of New Jersey related to its investment in Merrill Lynch. Wolf Poppers practice grew from its commitment to protecting the rights of individuals. In the 1950s, Wolf Popper played a key role in representing the Hollywood 10, who appeared before the House UnAmerican Activities Committee and refused to answer questions about their political beliefs and affiliations. In 1961, Martin Popper played a pivotal role in the investigation into the disappearance of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner, three Freedom Riders who had traveled to Mississippi to support the voting rights of all Americans. Martin Popper and Mr. Goodmans parents met with President Lyndon B. Johnson, and as a result, the FBI took over the investigation. The story of the investigation into their disappearance is told in the Oscar® winning film Mississippi Burning. Wolf Popper has a long-standing involvement in international law, and represents foreign clients with interests in the United States. In 1945, Martin Popper was a consultant for the U.S. delegation to the Founding Conference of the United Nations. Today, Wolf Popper has an office in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Carlos López López, Wolf Poppers partner in San Juan, currently is President of the Inter-American Bar Association.
