Waste Management Class Action Lawsuit (WM Lawsuit)

The Klein Law Firm announces that a class action complaint (Waste Management Class Action Lawsuit) has been filed on behalf of shareholders of Waste Management, Inc. (NYSE: WM) who purchased redeemable senior notes between February 13, 2020 and June 23, 2020. The action, which was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleges that the Company violated federal securities laws.

Shareholders have until August 8, 2022 to petition the court for lead plaintiff status. Your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as lead plaintiff. You may choose to be an absent class member.
