Herzog Fox & Neeman’s class actions practice is distinguished by its multinational-dominated client list, with the team frequently representing defendants in cases linked to parallel US actions. The group also acts for leading domestic companies across the full range of class action topics. High-profile litigator Joseph Ashkenazi heads the team and is commended for his ‘strategic vision’. Other names to note include Shai Kagan, whose recent run of cases establishes him as a go-to adviser for multinational technology companies; Haim Machluf, whose recent class actions span technology, antitrust, consumer law and securities, among others; Isaac Shragay, who is noted for consumer law-related claims; and Moran Yemini, who is a ’brilliant legal mind’. David Zailer was recently appointed to the bench, while Yoav Hertman left to establish his own firm in August 2024.
