The Benefits of Partnering with Zolna Swetland, LLC
Our settlement figures speak for themselves. Founding partners Benjamin R. Swetland and Jacie Zolna are a formidable duo, taking on big-name Defendants. We’re never intimidated by powerful adversaries, and our track record proves it.
But our commitment runs deeper than big-ticket settlements.
In high-stakes class actions like McKenzie-Lopez v. City of Chicago, we secured over $125 million in relief, a triumph among the largest class-action settlements in the U.S.
