In Sacramento, that firm is Kershaw Talley Barlow. Bill Kershaw and Stuart Talley have spent careers taking on insurance companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and pension administrators. Their $680M CalPERS settlement is one of the largest class action recoveries in California history. The firm also handles serious individual personal injury cases, dangerous drugs, and defective medical devices. Over $1 billion recovered. If your situation could be one of many — or if it's catastrophic and complex — start here.

"I was one of the long-term care policyholders hit with the 85% premium increase. The KTB team got us a settlement that gave back what was taken. Five-plus years of disciplined litigation."
"Side effects the drugmaker knew about. Stuart Talley's team built the science, the timeline, and the case. Recovery covered ongoing medical care."
"Years of unpaid overtime across a national employer. Ian Barlow's team certified the class and resolved it for far more than I thought possible."
