What Milberg Coleman Bryson Phillips Grossman does

Milberg Coleman Bryson Phillips Grossman is a privately held plaintiffs' law firm founded in 1965, headquartered in San Juan, Puerto Rico, with eleven US offices and international operations in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Brazil, Germany, and Portugal. The firm represents individual consumers, employees, investors, and victim classes in federal class action litigation, mass arbitration, and complex civil matters across practice areas including data privacy and cybersecurity (BIPA, data breach), antitrust, consumer fraud, employment and civil rights, defective products, environmental and toxic torts, sexual abuse, and personal injury. Milberg is consistently ranked the most active plaintiff-side firm in federal class action filings-669 in 2025 per Lex Machina's Class Action Litigation Report-and has recovered more than $50 billion for clients since founding. Representative outcomes include the Equifax $700 million data breach settlement, the Sirius XM $180 million antitrust settlement, the AK Steel $178.6 million ERISA settlement, and settlements with Meta ($68.5M), Snap ($35M), Walmart, CVS, and Bose on biometric privacy claims. The firm is led by partners including Marc Grossman (Senior Partner), Glenn Phillips (Partner and founding member of the 2021 MCBPG combination), Gary Klinger (data privacy), David K. Lietz (data breach), and Peggy Wedgworth (Antitrust Chair). Milberg's go-to-market relies on earned media, attorney referrals, website intake, and strategic partnerships (Class Action U, Helping Survivors, and a network of co-counsel firms); all matters are handled on a contingency-fee basis with no upfront cost to clients.

1. Contingency Fee Litigation: Milberg operates on a contingency fee basis for class action and personal injury cases. Clients pay no upfront legal fees; the firm receives a percentage of settlements or verdicts only if money is recovered. This model aligns firm incentives with client outcomes and enables access to justice for individuals who cannot afford legal representation.
