The Brattle Group Welcomes Brendan Rudolph
The Brattle Group has recently announced the addition of Brendan Rudolph to its New York office as a Principal and Co-Leader for the firm's Private Equity, Venture Capital, and Hedge Funds practice. With an impressive track record exceeding two decades, Rudolph specializes in addressing complex securities class actions and other intricate commercial litigations.
Rudolph's extensive background includes niche expertise in damages estimation, market efficiency, and effects on asset pricing. This skill set proves invaluable in securities cases, particularly those relating to Rule 10b-5 and Section 11. He also deals with Delaware appraisal actions and helps resolve disputes across multiple sectors ranging from finance and technology to consumer goods and pharmaceuticals.
During his career, Rudolph has functioned through every phase of commercial litigation, engaging deeply during class certification, merit assessments, arbitration, and trial stages. He has stepped into the spotlight as a lead consultant while preparing expert testimonies in significant high-stakes cases, often involving multi-billion-dollar damage claims that could impact the future of major corporations.

His adeptness has also extended to advising on residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) and real estate issues, making him a well-rounded asset for The Brattle Group.
In this new phase, Rudolph will partner with Principal Nguyet Nguyen and Senior Associate Julia Zhu, further strengthening the Private Equity, Venture Capital, and Hedge Funds practice.
