Ms. Leizerman also serves as counsel to Allen Miller in the high-profile Miller v. C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. case. The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision—to deny review of the firm’s victory in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, preserving the rights of truck crash victims to seek justice and compensation against transportation brokers and truck companies—was due in large part to Ms. Leizerman’s efforts.
