Cleveland law firm Weston Hurd LLP has acquired Persky, Shapiro & Arnoff Co. L.P.A. of Beachwood for undisclosed terms.
Persky Shapiro employs seven attorneys, and the acquisition will bring Weston Hurd’s headcount to about 60 attorneys.
Weston Hurd managing partner Carolyn Cappel said the acquisition was attractive in part because it has added a tax practice group to her firm. |

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.
