We defend clients against allegations of personal injury and property damage regarding the effects of asbestos, butadiene, benzene, silica, solvents and other substances and have successfully defended manufacturers of such diverse products as pharmaceuticals, power presses and pump jacks, chemical and petroleum products, industrial waste treatment providers, and insurers dealing with coverage for incidents under liability policies.

A distinct feature of the firm’s product liability practice is that it couples mid-sized firm litigation support resources with a depth of actual trial experience increasingly uncommon in mid-sized to large firms. Our attorneys have diverse backgrounds and levels of experience and provide prompt and efficient assistance to clients in a multitude of settings, including consultation, negotiation, litigation, trial, arbitration and appeal. Our attorneys and staff have assembled an effective repository of medical, scientific and technical information, as well as a vast network of highly respected consultants and experts.
