Experience
Partner
Jan 2008 — Present
Highlights of my practice include: • Counsel for an international automobile manufacturer in large-scale automotive products liability and consumer class action MDL and state court consolidated proceedings involving over 200 nationwide class actions. • Counsel for a manufacturer of control valves in a bellwether product liability matter involving pressure vessel failures. After a two-week trial, a verdict exonerating the client led to the dismissal of all remaining actions, and indemnification from the pressure vessel manufacturer against all future claims. • Counsel for a manufacturer of plumbing components in a nationwide class action. After deposing plaintiffs’ experts and establishing grounds to preclude each of them from testifying, the class action settled for a fraction of plaintiffs’ demand. • Counsel for the manufacturer of a high-voltage electrical distribution panel in a products liability action involving severe burn injuries sustained during an explosion and fire. In less than two hours, the jury returned a unanimous defense verdict for the manufacturer. • Counsel for the manufacturer of water distribution components in false claims act litigation in which more than 160 municipal entities alleged lead contamination in their drinking water and damages in excess of $1 billion. This litigation included the defense of a companion common law action brought by more than 40 municipalities, and a verdict on summary judgment against a related unfair competition action brought on behalf of every consumer of drinking water in California. • Counsel for a minority shareholder in a dispute over the operation of a closely held corporation that owned and operated several nursing homes. Even though the majority shareholder’s actions resulted in increased profits for the corporation, obtained a multimillion-dollar verdict for minority shareholder after several weeks of trial.
