Biography

Kendra Schramm is a highly valued litigator, with years of experience working on large and complex securities matters, and a key member of BFA’s International Litigation Practice.
 
The Firm’s International Litigation Practice advises, and acts in a liaison capacity on behalf of, leading institutional investors in connection with securities and investment-related claims pursued outside the United States – the majority of which require a client’s formal decision to participate.
 
Kendra provides pragmatic and unbiased advice regarding meaningful recovery opportunities, including the risks and burdens that can arise from pursuing an international claim. Kendra has experience overseeing matters in Australia, Japan, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Brazil, France, and elsewhere, on behalf of public pension systems, asset managers, and sovereign wealth funds located around the global. Kendra also recently co-authored “A Look at Shareholder Remedies in Japan,” in Law360, discussing the evolving Japanese litigation regime.
 
Kendra is instrumental to the Firm’s outreach to prospective clients and ongoing client relations, and also works with the Firm’s Client Monitoring and Case Evaluation Group, assisting in the assessment and prosecution of domestic securities class actions.
 
Prior to joining BFA, Kendra was an associate at another plaintiffs’ securities firm, where she was a member of the team that recovered more than $1 billion in total settlements on behalf of investors in the landmark securities litigation against American International Group and numerous related defendants. Kendra was also instrumental in prosecuting the complex securities litigation against the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), which persuasively alleged that investors’ losses were caused by Fannie Mae’s statements and actions rather than the financial crisis and resulted in a $170 million settlement.
