Mindee J. Reuben represents plaintiffs across the country in a broad range of antitrust and consumer class action matters, regularly serving as lead, co-lead and liaison counsel and as a member of case-management committees in high-profile, multi-jurisdictional litigation.
Super Lawyers® and Philadelphia Magazine have repeatedly named Mindee as one of Pennsylvania’s top lawyers in the field of antitrust, as well as one of the top 50 Women Super Lawyers overall in the state. Mindee has also been named in the 25th & 26th Editions of The Best Lawyers in America© for her work in Antitrust Law.
Mindee works equally well with clients, fellow counsel and the courts. She understands the goals of all parties involved in complex disputes, develops sophisticated case strategies, and effectively navigates matters through the legal system toward resolution. “For plaintiffs, participation in a class action lawsuit is an act of faith,” says Mindee. “This is particularly true for named plaintiffs, who have staked their reputations and given their time to pursue justice. My goal is to achieve victory and manage cases efficiently so my clients can focus their attention where it matters most: on their personal and professional lives.”
Mindee is currently involved in several plaintiff class action antitrust matters, including In re: Processed Eggs Products Antitrust Litigation, No. 08-md-2002 (E.D. Pa.), in which she is co-lead and liaison counsel, and the court has approved over $130 million in settlements. Mindee is also serving as interim liaison counsel in In re Wawa, Inc. Data Breach Litigation, No. 19-cv-6019, also pending in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. She is also a member of the steering committee and has oversight of the document review in In re: Generic Pharmaceutical Pricing Antitrust Litigation, No. 16-md-2724 (E.D. Pa.), a member of the trial plan committee in In re Blue Cross Blue Shield Antitrust Litigation (Subscribers), No. 13-cv-20000 (N.D. Ala.), and a member of the deposition team in In re Broiler Chicken Antitrust Litigation (Direct Purchasers), No. 18-cv-8637 (N.D. Ill.). Other recent antitrust cases in which she has had a case management role include In re: Lithium Ion Batteries Antitrust Litigation, No. 13-md-2420 (N.D. Cal.) (steering committee), Gordon v. Amadeus IT Group, S.A., No. 15-cv-5457 (S.D.N.Y.) (co-lead counsel), and In re: Polyurethane Foam Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 2196 (N.D. Ohio) (executive committee).
Past representative antitrust matters include BP Products North America, Inc. Antitrust Litigation (N.D. Ill.) ($52 million settlement), In re: Polyester Staple Antitrust Litigation (W.D.N.C.) ($50 million settlement), In re: Electrical Carbon Products Antitrust Litigation (D.N.J.) ($21.9 million settlement), and In re Flonase Antitrust Litigation (E.D. Pa.) (confidential settlement on behalf of generic competitor).
Both the United States government and many states, including New Jersey, have laws against antitrust; monopolization of commerce, collusion in fixing prices, and other conduct that unlawfully restrains trade.
