Featured Success Stories
The $900,000 Class Action Settlement
“I was the lead class representative in a case against a company that provided security for the U.S. Navy. Pacific Eagle believed that only federal law applied, but without Mr. Heinrichs’ unwavering persistence and total command of difficult issues, we probably would never have received the money owed to us. After two years of litigation, Pacific Eagle finally agreed to pay $900,000.00 to settle the class action. I am very grateful for the hard work and commitment of Ward Heinrichs.” — Jeffrey Walters
