In re: Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. Holocaust Insurance Litigation, No 1374; Holocaust Swiss Bank Litigation; European Insurance Holocaust Litigation; Austrian Bank Holocaust Litigation
In the late 1990’s, Robert Swift was lead counsel in multiple lawsuits brought on behalf of Holocaust victims, suing banks and insurance companies which profited from the fiscal exploitation of Jews and other groups before and during WWII.
The cases were settled with the assistance of the United States, Swiss, German, and Austrian governments, which resulted in the recovery and distribution of $7.5 billion to more than 2 million people.
