Areas of Practice

Sascha’s focus includes defending companies against class actions and other sensitive and complex legal challenges. Clients view her as a problem solver using her legal skills to thoughtfully and creatively reach the optimal result for her clients. She regularly litigates cases involving California's Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law. Her practice also covers disputes over price gouging, breach of contract, business torts, and theft of trade secrets. Sascha is well-versed in litigation across state and federal trial courts, along with appellate work in the California Court of Appeal and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. In addition to her litigation and trial work, she regularly counsels clients who receive pre-litigation demand letters alleging products and services are misleadingly advertised.

Highlights of Sascha’s successes include:
