Winston and co-counsel helped the three major credit bureaus—Equifax, TransUnion and Experian—defeat claims they colluded with credit score provider FICO to cause consumers to overpay for credit scores. U.S. District Judge Edmond Chang in the N. D. Ill. found that the plaintiffs hadn’t adequately alleged that the credit bureaus entered into a conspiracy to further FICO’s alleged monopoly and dismissed the claims against them with prejudice. Winston’s successful defense of Equifax was recognized by American Lawyer in its Litigator of the Week column on December 3, 2024.
