Miller Barondess, LLP

Casey Sypek is a business litigator and partner at Miller Barondess, LLP who, in a ruling recognized as a DJ Top Verdict 2017, obtained ground-breaking jury verdict against University of California in gender discrimination case. She also represents 1.1 million Prius owners in federal court putative class action against Toyota. Sypek and her team defeated Toyota’s motion to dismiss; and, after 17 months of negotiations/mediation, reached a preliminary settlement for significant benefit of Prius owners.

Among her other high-profile work, Sypek represented Kovac Film against PMC Retaliators and Fluke Studios involving financing and production of a feature-length motion picture. PMC brought claims against Kovac for breach of contract. Kovac counter-claimed that PMC/Fluke failed to meet funding and created significant production issues. After a three-week arbitration, the arbitrator rejected PMC’s claims and awarded Kovac more than $900,000 in damages for its counterclaims.
