Product Liability and Toxic Tort

Our attorneys frequently serve as defense counsel in product liability and toxic tort litigation. Our litigation experience includes litigation arising from chemicals, building materials, complex products and industrial machinery, commercial construction, aviation and domestic products. Our clients include multinational manufacturing companies and smaller industrial companies. We also have extensive experience in class action litigation alleging personal injury and property damage. Our lawyers have a wide range of experience, from environmental to mass tort litigation. We have represented clients as lead counsel in complex litigation concerning industrial explosions and fires and alleged contamination involving radioactive materials. Our practice also involves the defense of environmental lawsuits and claims for natural resource damages. Our product-related litigation necessarily involves closely related issues of component liability. The firm also represents companies involved in the “closure” of industrial properties involving alleged contamination of the site and neighboring property.
