This lawsuit was one of the most intensely\ncovered cases by the media. The litigation had been pending for over ten\nyears before Chase joined the team. After taking a series of devastating\ndepositions, the opposition agreed to a favorable settlement. In\n2020, Chase beat the “Bond King” Bill Gross in a monthlong trial\nwhere a restraining order was issued against the billionaire.

Chase fights tirelessly for\nall of his clients, and has consistently secured amazing results. He has\nwon many difficult jury trials. In other cases, Chase’s aggressive\npretrial litigation made trial unnecessary. He has won twelve motions to\nsuppress evidence, and convinced prosecutors and judges to dismiss over thirty\nserious felony cases. Chase has also won multiple appeals and writs\nbefore the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.\n
In\naddition to being a highly regarded trial attorney, Chase is also a\nsought-after legal contributor. He edited the latest edition of Defending\na Federal Criminal Case.

She represents both plaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of high-stakes commercial litigation and white collar cases. Chambers USA ranks her among the top commercial litigators in California, quoting sources who describe Kay as “having great instincts and clients listen breathlessly when she speaks.” “She is exceptionally smart and hard-working.” Kay is a Senior Fellow of the invitation-only Litigation Counsel of America. She is also listed in the Law Dragon Leading Lawyers, among the most prestigious international legal directories.
Kay began her legal career over 32 years ago in the Orange County District Attorney’s Office, where she spent 12 years prosecuting criminal cases. In 2004, she entered private practice, focusing on white collar criminal cases. Her negotiation and trial skills made her one of the most effective defense lawyers in Southern California.
In 2005, she and Jennifer Keller formed Keller/Anderle and expanded their practice to include high-stakes business litigation and trials. In 2009, Kay worked with Jennifer on a business fraud trial in which the jury awarded $350 million, the largest jury verdict in California that year. In 2011, she joined Jennifer in the retrial of the epic doll battle Mattel v. MGA, in which MGA was defending against copyright infringement and trade secret misappropriation claims and prosecuting its own trade secret misappropriation action against Mattel. The jury rejected all of Mattel’s claims of copyright infringement and trade secret misappropriation and awarded $85 million in damages to MGA Entertainment; the judge added another $85 million in punitive damages and $139 million in attorneys’ fees. In 2013, Kay was co-lead plaintiff counsel on a business fraud trial which resulted in a multi-million-dollar jury award.
Since that time Kay has handled cases involving shareholder oppression (settled favorably to her client), allegations of human trafficking against a Saudi princess (all eventually dismissed), successful defense of a claim her client breached a $1 billion oral partnership for real estate investment, and a white collar criminal case alleging bribery of public officials by a developer that then-Attorney Jerry Brown called “the largest corruption case in the history of San Bernardino County, and possibly California.” After a nine-month jury trial the defendant was acquitted of all charges.
Kay is also managing partner of the firm.

EXPERIENCE
Reuben Cahn is a courtroom advocate of rare experience and ability. A Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, he has tried over 100 cases to jury verdict and has argued twice before the Supreme Court (in 2011 and 2018) in addition to numerous arguments before both the 9th and 11th Circuits. This combination of skill and experience at the highest levels establish Mr. Cahn as one of the most exceptional lawyers of his generation.
Mr. Cahn is a graduate of Stanford University’s English Honors Program and of Yale Law School, where he was an editor of the Yale Law Journal. Following graduation he clerked for the Honorable Lawrence W. Pierce of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Mr. Cahn began his career in New York at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, and then at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, where he worked in securities litigation and international arbitration for a combined four years. Spurred by his desire to be a trial lawyer and to serve the public, Mr. Cahn left corporate litigation to become a public defender, first in the state of Florida and then in the federal courts. There, Mr. Cahn distinguished himself in representing clients charged in matters presenting extraordinary factual and legal challenges ranging from capital murder to securities fraud, and quickly rose to become the Chief Assistant Federal Public Defender for the Southern District of Florida. Recruited to become the Executive Director of Federal Defenders of San Diego, Mr. Cahn continued to try cases and argue appeals while running an office of 140 employees and managing a budget of $26 million. He argued twice before the Supreme Court, served as “learned counsel” in the high profile case of United States v. Loughner, and led a team that obtained the release of two clients held at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base and charged as enemy combatants.
Mr. Cahn also established himself as a leader in the Federal Defender community, serving for ten years as one of its two representatives to the Judicial Conference of the United States. In recognition of this leadership, the Chief Justice of the United States appointed Mr. Cahn to the Conference’s special committee to review the Criminal Justice Act. He has chaired the Magistrate Judges Selection Committee of the Southern District of Florida and held numerous other positions of distinction and responsibility. Mr. Cahn has also won multiple awards for his advocacy.
Mr. Cahn has defended a wide range of matters, involving tax, public corruption, fraud, money laundering, RICO, Continuing Criminal Enterprise charges and virtually every other type of white collar case. He has been lead counsel in federal capital cases, including one that resulted in complete acquittal and another that ended with a unanimous life verdict. Mr. Cahn has been appointed “counsel learned in the law” by federal judges in over 15 capital trial cases.
At Keller/Anderle Mr. Cahn focuses on commercial litigation, white collar criminal defense, and appeals. He brings to his KA clients the energy and experience honed in countless jury trials, and in arguments before federal appellate courts and the highest court in the land.

Jennifer\nKeller is one of America’s most successful trial attorneys. She represents both\nplaintiffs and defendants in a broad range of high-stakes commercial litigation\nand white collar cases. Chambers USA and Chambers\nGlobal rank her among the top commercial litigators in the nation,\nquoting sources who describe Jennifer as “widely regarded as one of the best\ntrial lawyers in California.” “She has uncanny instincts, a wonderful courtroom\ndemeanor and she’s an extremely clear and effective communicator,” and “is\nabsolutely unflappable in court and builds a strong rapport and credibility\nwith judges and decision makers.” She is a Fellow of the invitation-only\nAmerican College of Trial Lawyers, considered to be among the highest honors a\nNorth American trial attorney can receive. The Legal 500, among the\nmost prestigious international legal directories, recommends Jennifer as one of\njust 63 “leading trial lawyers” in the entire United States. Jennifer is also a\n2018 inductee into the California Lawyers Association Trial Lawyer Hall of\nFame, one of only 35 attorneys so honored throughout the years. Benchmark\nLitigation lists her as one of the “Top 100 Trial Attorneys in\nAmerica” and among the “Top 20 Trial Lawyers in California,” calling her a\n“National Litigation Star.” In 2020 and in 2021, Super Lawyers ranked\nJennifer #1 in Southern California. “Revered for her versatility and ease in\nfront of a jury … the go-to trial attorney for difficult cases” is how Jennifer\nis described by The Los Angeles and San Francisco Daily Journals,\nranking her as a “Top 100 Lawyer in California” for over 10 years in a row. In\nthree separate years (2019, 2018 and 2012), in starkly different subjects,\nJennifer’s trial victories have led to California Lawyer Magazine Attorneys\nof the Year (CLAY) awards for extraordinary achievements in litigation.\n\nJennifer\nmade a last-minute entrance as lead counsel for MGA Entertainment in the 2011\nretrial of Mattel v. MGA, the epic doll battle popularly known as “Barbie v.\nBratz.” Coming into the four-month jury trial just twelve days before jury\nselection, Jennifer captained MGA to a win Reuters called “an astonishing loss”\nfor Mattel and the LA Times deemed “a stunning reversal of\nfortune” for MGA. The jury found Mattel had no rights to the Bratz doll line\nand awarded MGA $85 million in damages for theft of its own trade secrets, to\nwhich the judge added $85 million in punitive damages. (While the damages\njudgment was reversed on appeal, MGA’s $139 million attorneys’ fee award\nstands.)\n
Just two\nyears earlier Jennifer won California’s largest business jury verdict of 2009\nwith $350 million awarded to her venture capitalist client in Auerbach v.\nDaily. Recently she represented Standard & Poors in United States v. The\nMcGraw-Hill Companies, the government’s civil suit claiming S&P inflated\nthe value of certain mortgage-backed securities. Jennifer was selected as one\nof S&P’s three trial attorneys. The case settled in 2015 for over $1\nbillion, which was less than one-fifth of what the government had been\ndemanding.\n
In 2022,\nJennifer successfully defended Tony, Emmy and two-time Oscar winner Kevin\nSpacey against actor Anthony Rapp in a sexual battery civil jury trial in\nSouthern District of New York. The jury deliberated only 30 minutes before reaching a\nunanimous verdict finding Mr. Spacey not liable and denying Mr. Rapp the $40 million he\nwas seeking. The case was covered by the global media.\n
In 2018\nJennifer won two landmark jury verdicts in different areas, each of which was\nnamed a “Top Defense Verdict” by the Los Angeles and San Francisco\nDaily Journals. For one of them, Yellowstone Women’s First Step House v.\nCosta Mesa, Jennifer won her third CLAY Award (California Lawyer Magazine Attorneys\nof the Year). In the other, Chavez et al. cv. MassMutual Life Insurance Co.,\nshe also won a CVN “Top Verdicts” award. In 2017 Jennifer as\nco-lead counsel got a not guilty verdict for her developer client Jeffrey Burum\nafter nine months of jury trial in what the California Attorney General called\n“the largest corruption case in the history of San Bernardino, and possibly\nCalifornia.” The jury was out a little more than two hours before acquitting\nMr. Burum of all charges.\n
Jennifer\nis listed annually in “The Best Lawyers in America®” and is\namong the Lawdragon 500 Leading Lawyers in America. Jennifer is a\nfellow of the Litigation Counsel of America, an invitation-only organization\nlimited to the top one-half of one percent of the nation’s attorneys.\n
Jennifer\nis also active in the community. She is the former President of the Orange\nCounty Bar Association and served for many years as a Trustee of Chapman\nUniversity. She counts as present and former clients judges, public officials,\nlaw enforcement officers, CEOs, CFOs, lawyers, physicians, professional\nathletes, entertainment industry executives, actors, venture capitalists and\nentrepreneurs. Jennifer’s past and present institutional clients have included\nFortune 100 corporations, other publicly-traded corporations, and large\nprivately-held companies.
