Biography

Evan Kubota brings substantial experience in all stages of litigation, from pre-suit investigation and strategic advice through motion practice, discovery, trial, and appeal. His experience includes complex securities and derivative actions, bankruptcy confirmation and adversary proceedings, and regulatory investigations. He has taken and defended numerous depositions, worked closely with damages and industry experts, presented at mediations, and participated in several trials.

Evan was a member of the teams prosecuting the successfully resolved cases against Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd., Granite Construction Incorporated, and Gatos Silver, Inc. (settlement pending), and is currently litigating class actions against Talis Biomedical Corp., Bioventus Inc., and TaskUs, Inc., as well as sovereign debt litigation against Sri Lanka and the Republic of Argentina.

Prior to joining BFA in 2019, Evan was an associate at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP for nine years, where he litigated high-profile matters on behalf of financial institutions and issuers in a variety of industries.  Representative matters include plaintiff's counsel in breach of contract, fraud and civil RICO litigations against a distressed insurance company; debtor's counsel in a leading media company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy, which eliminated over $1 billion in debt; and the defense of numerous RMBS-related litigations, arbitrations, and investigations in the wake of the financial crisis.
