Product Liability and Toxic Tort
MRSB’s product liability and toxic tort team has represented companies making a wide range of products including pharmaceuticals, electrical equipment, brakes, clutches, aircraft, food companies, automotive, and medical devices. Our experience spans mass torts, class actions, multi-district litigation as well as thousands of individual cases. We’ve appeared in state and federal courts across the nation, including well-known plaintiff-friendly courts in Madison County, IL, Cook County, IL, Philadelphia, PA, and St. Louis, MO.
This experience gives us the knowledge and skill to handle the difficult scientific and medical issues that arise in these complex cases. In addition, our team has managed mass litigation while coordinating media response, shareholders, insurance coverage and attorneys general investigations.
Our team of seasoned trial lawyers can help from the early stages of pre-claim prevention analysis, development of key legal and factual issues, e-discovery, and expert and company witness preparation. Of course, we are always prepared to try your case to verdict if necessary.
Examples of our achievements include:
- Numerous defense verdicts in complex toxic tort trials.
- Summary judgment victories.
- Lead counsel in multiple MDLs for regulated and non-regulated products.
- Local counsel for MDLs in Kansas.
- Favorable settlement outcomes in wrongful death fire cases.
- Negotiating hundreds of no-pay dismissals.
