    Brittany Alexander focuses on complex civil litigation, with an emphasis on class-action defense and health care matters. Brittany brings extensive experience guiding clients through every stage of the litigation life cycle. She develops practical, creative solutions that protect clients’ interests and position disputes for efficient resolution.

    Brittany understands the heightened financial, operational and reputational risks posed by class actions and payment disputes. She has extensive experience representing managed care organizations, health insurers, and health care companies in high‑value matters where complex litigation overlaps with increased regulatory scrutiny.

    Drawing on a broad litigation skillset, Brittany quickly identifies the key issues at stake and provides clear, informed defense options. She works collaboratively with clients as a strategic partner — keeping them informed of case developments, risks and next steps — while tailoring litigation strategies to align with business objectives. She has resolved matters involving:

      • Class-action litigation
      • Antitrust and RICO allegations
      • Underpayment and reimbursement disputes
      • Unfair trade practice and consumer protection act claims
      • Contract and corporate disputes
      • ERISA benefits claims

    Before joining Phelps, Brittany served as a law clerk to the Honorable Elizabeth Erny Foote of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana.
