General Motors General Unsecured Claims Trust Defends Automobile Ignition Switch Defects Claims

The General Motors General Unsecured Claims Trust defended against a class action and individual plaintiffs alleging harms caused by automobile ignition switch defects that GM failed to disclose prior to its 2009 bankruptcy. Our firm defended the trust against the claims, including related claims by the trust against General Motors LLC (the purchaser of old GM's assets) seeking over $1 billion in additional contributions to GM's bankruptcy estate.
