Joseph Delich

Partner, New York

Joe has extensive experience handling complex matters that require innovative solutions and is always exploring how to integrate new technologies into his practice in order to achieve better outcomes for his clients.

He practices extensively on a wide range of subject matter, in both state and federal courts throughout the country, including class actions (both plaintiff and defense), commercial contract disputes, and securities litigation.

In January 2025, Joe helped lead the trial team that successfully obtained a defamation and punitive damages verdict against CNN.  The CNN verdict appears to be the first time in history a plaintiff has successfully obtained punitive damages against a national media outlet by satisfying the N.Y Times v. Sullivan actual malice standard. 

He is lead trial counsel in a separate multimillion-dollar lawsuit against NASCAR on behalf of a race team's cryptocurrency sponsor, which similarly seeks to hold the defendant accountable for its words and actions.  

He is an active part of the firm’s antitrust practice and a core member of the team leading antitrust claims against the nation's top universities, which has already resulted in $284,000,000 in preliminary settlements. In 2021, Joe was part of the trial team that obtained a $140,000,000 judgment from a federal jury after a month-long trial.
