Mass Torts Made Perfect Fall Conference

I recently had the pleasure of attending the Mass Torts Made Perfect conference in Las Vegas. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with colleagues from across the country, meet with leading mass tort lawyers, and get updates on the latest in mass tort cases that may impact many in our community, including:

Toxic water at Camp Lejeune
Paraquat and Parkinson’s Disease
Infant formula and N.E.C.
Phillips CPAP machines
Tylenol in pregnancy and autism
Zantac and certain cancers
Elmiron vision loss claims
3M military earplugs and hearing loss

We are working to stay as informed as possible in these cases so we can help our friends, clients, and neighbors who have these claims get the best possible representation. Please reach out if you’d like more information about any of these potential claims.
