Pomerantz LLP

What Pomerantz LLP does

Pomerantz LLP is a plaintiff-side securities litigation law firm founded in 1936 and headquartered in New York, with additional offices in Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Tel Aviv. The firm specializes in representing investors in securities class action lawsuits, corporate governance litigation, global investor recovery proceedings, and consumer class actions, seeking financial recovery for shareholders who suffered losses due to corporate misconduct, fraud, or breaches of fiduciary duty. The firm is one of the most cited plaintiffs' securities litigation practices in the United States, having secured landmark recoveries including $3 billion in the Petrobras matter, $350 million in United Healthcare, $225 million in Comverse Technology, and numerous other eight- and nine-figure settlements cited by federal judges as exceptional. The firm operates an institutional investor services arm offering portfolio monitoring and claims filing, and maintains active public-facing communications through The Pomerantz Monitor newsletter, PR newswire-distributed investor alerts, and multi-platform social media.

The firm earns revenue primarily through contingency fee arrangements in class action litigation, where attorney fees are court-awarded as a percentage of any recovery obtained for investors, with no upfront cost to class members. Case-by-case pricing is negotiated individually. Investor clients include both retail shareholders harmed by securities fraud and institutional investors (including pensions and asset managers) served through portfolio monitoring and claims filing engagements. The firm's distribution motion centers on lead-plaintiff appointment in federal securities class actions, with investor alerts distributed via PR Newswire, GlobeNewswire, and FinancialContent serving as the primary top-of-funnel pipeline, supplemented by direct outreach to institutional investor networks.

Pomerantz employs approximately 40-60 attorneys and legal professionals across its six offices (51-100 total employees per firmographic estimates), with named partners practicing across securities litigation, corporate governance, consumer litigation, and global investor recovery. The firm has 50+ named partners on its roster and tracks an active pipeline of investigations and current cases announced via the website. The firm is privately held as a Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), owned and controlled by its partners, with no parent company, private equity ownership, or public-market listing. The firm has received consistent analyst recognition from Chambers USA (2020-2025), Benchmark Litigation (2026), Legal 500, and European Pensions for thought leadership in championing global investor rights.
