WINSTON-SALEM -- Kilpatrick Stockton announced that W. Randy Eaddy, a Corporate Department Partner in the firm’s Atlanta office, has moved his practice to Winston-Salem. Mr. Eaddy, with over 25 years of experience in the corporate legal arena, has been with Kilpatrick Stockton since 1992.
This news comes after the firm announced last year that Partner Jeffrey Skinner joined the Winston-Salem Corporate Department after practicing in the firm’s Raleigh office.
“Randy is an outstanding addition to the Winston-Salem office,” said Steve Berlin, Kilpatrick Stockton Executive Committee Member. “Randy’s extensive experience with sophisticated corporate finance and securities transactions will continue to be an incredible resource for all clients and firm attorneys. I have had the privilege of working with Randy for many years and I look forward to him now being just down the hall.”
“I am honored and excited to be a part of the Winston-Salem office, and join forces more directly with our colleagues here to serve the burgeoning business community of the Triad,” said Randy Eaddy. “Over the years, I have always enjoyed working with all firm offices, but especially Winston. This office offers exceptional opportunities. The caliber and diversity of work for existing clients and the potential for others, the commitment to the community, and the esprit de corps throughout the office, all played an important role in my decision to relocate to the Triad.”
Mr. Eaddy’s broadly based practice includes particular emphasis on registered securities offerings, venture capital financings, mergers and acquisitions and other project transactions, and securities law disclosure and compliance matters for public companies. He is a counselor and advisor to executives and directors on myriad strategic decisions for managing their businesses to produce value for their internal and external constituents. Mr. Eaddy has been listed for several years in The Best Lawyers in America® for Corporate Law. Additionally, he was named as one of 2004's "100 Most Influential Georgians" and is recognized as one of Georgia’s "Legal Elite" by Georgia Trend Magazine.
Mr. Eaddy is a 1979 graduate of the Harvard Law School, where he served as an Editor of the Harvard Law Review. He was graduated summa cum laude from Furman University in 1976, where he majored in Political Science and received numerous honors and awards, including election to Phi Beta Kappa, the Blue Key National Honor Society, and Furman's Quaternion Society.
Mr. Eaddy, who chairs Kilpatrick Stockton’s Diversity Council, and is recognized as a thought-leader on diversity in the legal profession, is the principal author of the chapter on "Diversity" in the Thomson/West multi-volume treatise Successful Partnership Between Inside and Outside Counsel. He has published several articles in legal journals, chaired or served as a lecturer and panelist on numerous programs for the continuing legal education of lawyers, and participated as moderator or discussant for academic symposia.

Class action or a representative action is a form of lawsuit in which a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court and/or in which a class of defendants is being sued. This form of collective lawsuit originated in the United States and is still predominantly a U.S. phenomenon, at least the U.S. variant of it. In the United States federal courts, class actions are governed by Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule. Since 1938, many states have adopted rules similar to the FRCP. However, some states like California have civil procedure systems which deviate significantly from the federal rules; the California Codes provide for four separate types of class actions. As a result, there are two separate treatises devoted solely to the complex topic of California class actions. Some states, such as Virginia, do not provide for any class actions, while others, such as New York, limit the types of claims that may be brought as class actions.
