Biography
Luna’s trial work and strategic judgment have earned her broad industry recognition. Chambers USA ranks her among the leading commercial litigators in New York, with clients describing her as “proactive,” “efficient,” and “an excellent litigator” who “promptly turns things around.” Benchmark Litigation has named her a “Future Star” and included her on its 40 & Under List from 2023 to 2025. She is also recognized by Lawdragon 500 as one of the “Leading Litigators in America,” and has been selected by Law360 as a national Trials “Rising Star,” and shortlisted by Euromoney’s Women in Business Law Awards as a “Rising Star in Litigation.”
Luna serves as lead trial counsel in complex domestic and cross-border disputes. Her recent engagements include defending a major, UK-based publicly traded company in high-stakes litigation brought by its board of directors; representing a class of professional tennis players in an antitrust lawsuit against the Grand Slams and the men’s and women’s professional tennis tours; and representing Altria in significant post-judgment proceedings in a significant intellectual property dispute.
Her trial practice also encompasses major commercial, product liability, and securities disputes. Luna secured a decisive post-trial victory for Serta Simmons Bedding after a five-day bench trial that facilitated the company’s emergence from chapter 11. She obtained a complete arbitration victory for a major e-commerce company in a nine-figure contract dispute following a five-day evidentiary hearing. Luna also helped deliver a complete defense jury verdict for Johnson & Johnson in the talc mass tort litigation, and successfully defended Sasol Limited in a $200 million securities class action. She also regularly leads trials in antitrust matters, including securing a sweeping defense jury verdict—affirmed by the Eighth Circuit—for C&S Wholesale Grocers in an antitrust class action involving nearly $1 billion in alleged damages.
Luna maintains an active pro bono practice focused on constitutional and civil-rights litigation. She secured a landmark victory before the North Dakota Supreme Court enjoining enforcement of a statewide abortion ban, prevailed in a federal constitutional challenge to an Arizona statute under the First and Fourteenth Amendments, and obtained a complete win after a weeklong bench trial in a Hague Convention matter.
Luna is a co-leader of AsianAttorneys@Weil and is active in the Asian American Bar Association of New York. She previously served on Law360’s Trials Editorial Advisory Board. Before joining Weil, she clerked for the Honorable Richard M. Berman of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
