The Weston Firm was founded in 2007 by attorney Gregory S. Weston. The firm is strongly focused on consumer fraud class actions.
In June 2011 the Firm recovered $225,000 for a California home buyer who alleged he was defrauded by a developer.
In March 2011 the Firm was appointed class counsel in an action whose settlement resulted in the removal of toxic trans fat from dozens of margarine products.
In April 2009 Mr. Weston obtained a $1.35 million class action settlement on behalf of 95 Los Angeles-area condo purchasers.
The Weston Firm's attorneys currently serve as Interim Class Counsel in the following consolidated actions:
In re: Apple and AT&T iPad Unlimited Data Plan Litigation, an action on behalf of thousands of early iPad buyers who had a promised unlimited data plan withdrawn only days or weeks after their iPad purchase;
Guttmann et al. v. The Quaker Oats Company, an action alleging Quaker makes misleading health claims on a variety of its trans-fat-laden products; and
In re Ferrero Litigation, an action alleging Nutella is falsely marketed as a healthy breakfast food.
The Firm is also counsel for plaintiff in a class action against Netflix over its "deaf tax" policies that result in higher charges to individuals who require captioning.
