Shay Dvoretzky focuses on appellate advocacy, complex motions, and strategic counseling. He has argued before federal and state courts nationwide, including the U.S. Supreme Court and seven federal courts of appeal. His experience includes labor law, employment discrimination, ERISA, constitutional law, criminal law, administrative law, RICO, class actions, energy, antitrust, and foreign sovereign immunity.
Within the past year, Shay has won multiple victories for CBS Corporation in the Second Circuit (where he argued a case involving class claims under ERISA), before the South Carolina Supreme Court (where he argued an appeal involving statutory interpretation), and in multidistrict litigation (in a case involving maritime law). Other successful recent arguments involve the vesting of retiree health benefits (in the Fourth and Eighth Circuits), class certification (in the D.C. Circuit), and ERISA's anti-cutback and merger rules (in the Eleventh Circuit). In March 2010, Shay argued Samantar v. Yousuf before the U.S. Supreme Court, a case concerning the scope of the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. He has recently served as the principal author of successful petitions and briefs in Supreme Court cases involving Title VII, the Federal Power Act, and equal protection law. Shay's recent trial-level experience includes defending class actions brought against Bloomberg, GM, GE, and IBM.
Shay regularly speaks and writes on appellate advocacy and the Supreme Court. His pro bono practice includes victories in habeas and constitutional rights cases. He serves as treasurer of the Edward Coke Appellate Inn of Court. In 2011, Law360 recognized him as one of five Appellate Rising Stars.
