More Law Schools About to be Sued Over Employment Statistics?

I have previously posted about lawsuits against certain law schools, including Thomas Jefferson in San Diego and the Cooley Law School in Michigan around allegedly suspect employment data for their recent graduates. As reported in the Above the Law Blog, it looks like the field of defendants will be expanding.
Above the Law Reports that:
Strauss Law PLLC and the Law Offices of David Anziska are planning to sue not one, not two, but FIFTEEN more law schools to challenge their post-graduate employment rates.
The schools facing lawsuits (including Strauss’s own alma mater, Brooklyn Law School), and their reported post-graduate employment rates, are as follows:
  • Albany Law School (reports rates of between 91% and 97%);
  • Brooklyn Law School (reports rates of between 91% and 98%);
  • California Western School of Law (reports rates of between 90% and 93%);
  • Chicago-Kent College of Law (reports rates of between 90% and 97%);
  • DePaul University College of Law (reports rates of between 93% and 98%);
  • Florida Coastal School of Law (reports rates of between 80% and 95%);
  • Hofstra Law School (reports rates of between 94% and 97%);
  • John Marshall School of Law (Chicago) (reports rates of between 90% and 100%);
  • Pace University School of Law (reports rates of between 90% and 95%);
  • Southwestern Law School (reports rates of between 97% and 98%);
  • St. John’s University School of Law (reports rates of between 88% and 96%);
  • University of Baltimore School of Law (reports rates of between 93% and 95%);
  • University of San Francisco School of Law (reports rates of between 90% and 95% percent);
  • Villanova University School of Law (reports rates of between 93% and 98%); and
