Founded in 2012 with a distinctive mission, Gupta Wessler LLP is the nation’s premier plaintiff-side appellate boutique. The firm protects the country’s largest jury verdicts on appeal, leads consequential class-action and mass-tort appeals, and maintains a U.S. Supreme Court win record that consistently rivals —and surpasses—the biggest corporate defense firms.
The firm's docket spans the full spectrum of plaintiff-side practice, including antitrust, consumer protection, civil rights, workers' rights, products liability, securities fraud, torts, insurance bad faith, environmental justice, as well as administrative law and constitutional issues of all stripes.
With offices in Washington, D.C., San Francisco, and Boston, the firm serves as the go-to appellate partner for trial lawyers nationwide, providing a powerful counterweight to the corporate dominance of the Supreme Court and appellate bar. The firm also runs the Harvard Law School Supreme Court Litigation Clinic and serves as outside counsel to the American Association for Justice and state trial lawyer associations.
Gupta Wessler approaches every case with a fresh perspective, a strategic sense of how to frame the issues for success, and a singular focus on representing plaintiffs--never corporations. Its clients include classes of workers, consumers, and investors; public-interest organizations; and trial lawyers seeking to protect their most significant victories on appeal.
