Update from the President and CEO of Top Class Actions
Happy Tuesday, everyone! I hope you had a fantastic week!
My wife had the great idea to take the girls to the Desert Botanical Garden over the weekend. The girls LOVED it! The Botanical Garden has a special butterfly exhibit which allowed us to see hundreds of butterflies up close and personal. It was really neat! Our next jaunt will likely be to Butterfly Wonderland in Scottsdale. It may not be super “manly” but watching butterflies wing their way all around you is really neat. I’m glad my beautiful bride thought of the weekend activity!
On the business side of things, you’ll notice some new class action investigations went up over the past few days. The attorneys we work with are doing their best to take care of you and I hope you participate if you qualify. OK, on to the class action updates!
