Elizabeth Cabraser Named a “Titan of the Plaintiffs Bar” by Law360

Law360 has named Lieff Cabraser partner Elizabeth Cabraser a “Titan of the Plaintiffs Bar” for 2026, marking her second time receiving the award. The publication recognized just ten plaintiffs’ attorneys nationwide for their extraordinary work over the past year, highlighting lawyers who have handled impactful class actions, multidistrict litigation, derivative suits, and other high-stakes matters against powerful defendants. The “Titans of the Plaintiffs Bar” awards honor attorneys who not only lead significant litigation, but also help shape the legal landscape through their advocacy on behalf of consumers, workers, investors, patients, and communities.

Elizabeth was recognized for her work representing University of California faculty in a high-profile case against the Trump administration challenging the termination of federally approved research grants. As highlighted by Law360, her team secured a preliminary injunction reversing the government’s termination of the grants and successfully opposed efforts to stay and undermine that relief.

Congratulations to Elizabeth on this prestigious recognition!
