Jeff Margulies has a leading practice representing consumer product manufacturers and retailers in regulatory compliance, enforcement and litigation, including consumer class action litigation. Margulies is the managing partner for Norton Rose Fulbright’s Los Angeles and San Francisco offices, and serves on the firm’s compensation/new partner, and partnership committees. He was recently elected to serve a three-year term as a trustee of the Los Angeles County Bar Association.
Among Margulies’ recent highlights has been representing several national retailers (Albertson’s, Safeway, Sprouts Farmers Market and Target) in high-exposure Proposition 65 litigation over exposure to acrylamide. He is also representing Milwaukee Tools and Home Depot in consumer class action litigation over whether Milwaukee Fastback work knives are illegal switchblades. One of his major achievements this year was prevailing on an appeal on behalf of Margaret Summers, a former member of the board of directors of Wildlife Waystation.
