In an article published by Bloomberg Law on May 10, 2022, titled “CVS Avoids Class Status in Hand Sanitizer Germ-Killing Suit,” Steptoe & Johnson LLP was mentioned as representing the defendant CVS in Mier vs. CVS Pharmacy Inc.
The case revolves around allegations that CVS’s Advanced Formula Hand Sanitizer misleads consumers by claiming it kills 99.99% of all germs. Steptoe was able to obtain a court denial of class certification—a victory for the client and the firm.
Carol Brophy, Melanie Ayerh, Anthony Anscombe and Tony Hopp were part of the Steptoe team representing CVS. They were assisted by Jeremy Goldkind, Azar Alexander and Micha Wallen.
