About Wendy
Wendy E. Lane focuses on business and employment counseling, litigation, and dispute resolution. She has represented clients in actions for breach of contract, fraud, unfair competition and unfair business practices, trademark infringement, civil conspiracy, breach of fiduciary duties, wrongful death/toxic torts and claims arising from the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act. She also has considerable experience representing plaintiffs and defendants in employment litigation involving claims of harassment, discrimination, retaliatory discharge and wrongful discharge, as well as drafting employment handbooks and advising employers on employment issues.
Wendy has significant experience in child advocacy and family law. She authored the first edition of a manual on adoption law used by pro bono attorneys and law students in finalizing adoptions of dependent children throughout Los Angeles. An advocate of children's rights, Wendy has dedicated substantial time as a volunteer and intern with various social service agencies and non-profit, charitable organizations.
Notable Results:
- Represented national refiner and marketer of gasoline and other petroleum products in numerous franchise termination actions under the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act. Successfully obtained summary judgment, judgment on the pleadings, and a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision upholding judgment on the pleadings, which eliminated the actions against client.
- Represented accountant in dispute over the stock ownership of a closely-held corporation, defeating demurrer and successfully bringing motion to compel production of documents and obtaining sanctions against the other side before proceeding to bench trial. Settled case favorably for client after cross-examination of opposing side's key witness on first day of trial.
- Defended one of world's leading glass and ceramics manufacturers in product liability dispute. Filed motion for summary judgment demonstrating lack of evidence that client's product allegedly caused illness and death of individual who used product, persuading plaintiffs to dismiss case.
- Defended national food and drug store chains in wage and hour class action, efficiently coordinating depositions of hundreds of putative class members and review of thousands of pages of time sheets before settling matter favorably on behalf of clients.
- Favorably settled discrimination and harassment claims against head of prominent manufacturing company, less than two months after employee filed suit and one day after taking the employee's deposition.
