Marc M Seltzer

Marc Seltzer has practiced law for more than forty years, litigating complex cases in state and federal courts throughout the United States. Before joining Susman Godfrey, he was a principal in the law firm of Corinblit & Seltzer, a Professional Corporation. Marc Seltzer's relationship with the lawyers of Susman Godfrey began in the late 1970's, when he worked with Steve Susman on the Corrugated Container antitrust case. In the ensuing years, Mr. Seltzer joined forces with Susman Godfrey on a number of other cases. In February 1998, Marc Seltzer became a partner of the firm, and opened the firm's Los Angeles office. Since then, the firm's Los Angeles office has become one of the leading litigation boutiques in California. Since joining the firm, Mr. Seltzer has continued to work on complex litigation. Marc Seltzer was, together with Steve Susman, a member of the Susman Godfrey trial team representing approximately 90 financial institutions in a negligent misrepresentation case against one of the "Big Four" accounting firms. That case settled just prior to the commencement of trial. Marc Seltzer also teamed with Steve Susman in prosecuting the In re Vitamin Antitrust Litigation, which was settled pursuant to agreements that made more than $1.05 billion available to the class. In McCourt v. McCourt, Mr. Seltzer served as co-trial counsel with Steve Susman in representing Frank McCourt in his marital property litigation with his former wife which involved competing claims to ownership of the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2015, Mr. Seltzer successfully argued the appeal taken in that case by Ms. McCourt from the order denying her motion to set aside the settlement reached in that case.
