We
represent manufacturers and distributors in a wide
cross-section of industry and have experience related to a
wide variety of products including asbestos, building and
construction product, chemicals, lead, pharmaceuticals, silica
and tobacco. We handle product liability litigation ranging
from single plaintiff claims to mass tort claims involving
thousands of plaintiffs.
We understand the
challenges posed by high-profile, large-scale complex
litigation and its potential to inflict financial damage upon
a company and devastate an industry. We offer
specialized
experience in the defense of toxic tort and product-liability
cases, as well as class actions, that combines the highest
level of creative legal analysis and litigation strategy with
extensive knowledge of the relevant industry and a thorough
understanding of the laws and science at issue. Our lawyers
have a sharp business perspective and specialized
undergraduate and graduate-level scientific training that
makes them uniquely suited for mass tort litigation, including
class actions, toxic torts, product liability and strict
liability.
As part of
our services to clients, we have organized and litigated
mass tort
cases involving thousands of plaintiffs and thousands of
documents. We utilize the latest technology to handle all
aspects of
litigation, from discovery through trial. Our attorneys
routinely serve
as shared litigation counsel in mass tort claims. We believe
that
counsel sharing may result in an effective defense at a
significant
cost savings in many types of multi-party litigation and
welcome the
opportunity to discuss such an
arrangement.
