Andy Kubik has been litigating complex, class action cases since 2006. His cases have involved some of the largest corporations in the world, including claims for false advertising, shareholder rights, securities fraud, violations of antitrust laws, unfair competition, defective products, privacy, and international telecommunications fraud.

Andy was part of the lead counsel team that represented purchasers of Bosch front-load washing machines alleging a defect that resulted in mold and mildew build-up inside the washers, No. 10-00711 (C.D. Cal). The case was certified as a class action by District Judge David O. Carter, and BSH Home Appliances Corporation appealed the decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and United States Supreme Court. After extensive expert discovery and contentious motion practice, a settlement was reached on the eve of trial valued at $35 million.

Andy has also obtained favorable results for consumers in cases involving defective Electrolux refrigerators, defective Maytag dishwashers manufactured by Whirlpool, and therapeutic heating pads marketed by Kaz Inc.
