As a founding partner of Bernstein Litowitz Berger & Grossmann, Max Berger has grown the firm into what the Financial Times described as “one of the most powerful securities class action law firms in the United States.” His prosecution of seminal cases has increased market transparency, held wrongdoers accountable, and improved corporate business practices in groundbreaking ways. Max has litigated many of the firm’s most high-profile and significant cases and secured some of the largest recoveries ever achieved in securities fraud lawsuits, negotiating seven of the largest securities fraud settlements in history, each in excess of a billion dollars.

Max’s cases have resulted in sweeping corporate governance overhauls and have yielded results which have served as models for public companies going forward. Max is widely recognized as the “Dean” of the U.S. plaintiff securities bar for his remarkable career and his professional excellence.
