January 3, 2012 Bursor & Fisher, P.A. Appointed Interim Class Counsel in Samsung Electronics Lawsuit On January 3, 2012, Judge Stanley R. Chesler of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey appointed Bursor & Fisher, P.A. to serve as Interim Class Counsel in Avram v. Samsung Electronics America, Inc. et al., Case No. 11-CIV-6973 (SRC)(MAS), to represent a proposed nationwide class of persons who purchased mislabeled refrigerators from Samsung Electronics America, Inc. and Lowe's Companies, Inc. The lawsuit alleges that Samsung and Lowe's misrepresented the energy efficiency of certain refrigerators by promoting them as ENERGY STAR-qualified and labeling them with the ENERGY STAR logo. In fact, the refrigerators do not meet the ENERGY STAR standards for energy efficiency and consume significantly more energy than the label states. "We are pleased that Judge Chesler appointed our firm as Interim Class Counsel in this case," said Scott A. Bursor, one of the firm's partners handling the matter. "We have experience litigating similar claims against LG and Sears, and we intend to litigate this case aggressively on behalf of our clients and all of those class members who purchased mislabeled refrigerators from Samsung and Lowe's."
