Kimberly Kralowec with The Kralowec Law Group in San Francisco, Jeffrey Fazio and Dina Micheletti of Fazio Micheletti in San Ramon, and counsel Steven Schwartz and partner Timothy Matthews of Chimicles & Tikellis in Pennsylvania, had asked for $15.9 million, or 30 percent of the $53 million settlement.
