We have Defended Some of the World’s Largest Drug and Medical Device Manufacturers
Drug and medical device manufacturers face an increasingly hostile and uncertain legal environment. Due to close government regulation and a steady increase in mass tort litigation, the industry is under constant pressure from liability cases and the resulting negative media exposure.
As local, regional, and national counsel, we have defended some of the world’s largest drug and medical device manufacturers against mass tort litigation.
Class Action Defense
Drug and medical device litigation will often result in class-action certification, in which the cases of hundreds or even thousands of plaintiffs are consolidated. Class action representation requires several factors that are not present in other litigation; particularly, experienced staff and document management software to efficiently oversee and coordinate massive workloads and documents.
We have the resources—including experienced class action defense attorneys and staff—to efficiently manage and tenaciously represent the interests of clients. We work closely with corporate counsel and risk managers to create and implement litigation plans, based on given facts and circumstances, that will ensure the best possible resolution.
