Who Are We?

Moriarty Leyendecker is a no-nonsense law firm that prides itself on protecting people who have been unfairly caught in situations beyond their control. Since 1976, the firm has represented more than 25,000 clients in 48 states and several foreign countries. Our cases and approach to litigation have been reported byThe New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, 60 Minutes, American Lawyer, National Law Journal, Texas Lawyer, NBC-TV, CBS Radio, The Boston Globe, The Dallas Morning News, Good Morning America, and The Houston Chronicle, among others. Kurt Eichenwald of The New York Times featured the legal team in his book, Serpent On the Rock.
Below is a brief summary of some of the cases Moriarty Leyendecker, along with various co-counsel, has brought to a favorable verdict or settlement:
  • Represented 700 former patients who underwent unnecessary invasive heart surgeries at Redding Medical Center, a hospital owned by Tenet Healthcare.
  • Represented more than 13,000 investors in a breach of fiduciary duty and fraud case against Marriott, which arose out of the Courtyard, Fairfield Inn, and Residence Inn limited partnerships.
  • Represented 625 individuals in a health care fraud case against National Medical Enterprises (NME) who claimed that the defendants had bribed psychiatrists to unnecessarily hospitalize them and hold them until the maximum amount of payments could be extracted from their insurance carriers.
  • Represented nearly 12,000 homeowners damaged by polybutylene plumbing systems in fraud and consumer litigation against Shell Celanese and DuPont.
  • Represented 5,800 limited partnership investors who were sponsored and marketed by Prudential-Bache Securities and Graham Energy. Evidence gathered by the legal team of a massive fraud that resulted in substantial losses for hundreds of thousands of investors across the country was turned over to the Securities and Exchange Commission, which ultimately led to recoveries on behalf of tens of thousands of other investors across the county.
