Industry-Wide Litigation
W&M is recognized for its litigation skills and trial experience in both highly publicized class actions and individual claims. We are consistently trusted to serve as national, local, and lead counsel to several well-recognized and Fortune 500 companies. W&M has built a particularly strong practice in successfully defending businesses against product liability theories. For example, W&M has defended product manufacturers and construction companies in individual and class action asbestos litigation. We currently represent several pharmaceutical manufacturers and sellers in high profile cases, such as the litigation involving the dietary supplement “Metabolife.” W&M is at the forefront of defending gun manufacturers and distributors from industry-wide litigation across the country brought by cities as well as class actions by private individuals. W&M works to resolve class action litigation in
a way that works best for the client. Although we are always mindful
of cost and exposure reduction strategies, we strive to quickly
and decisively defeat these claims to prevent a flood of future
litigation, which targets the freedom to conduct lawful business
and the core values of our clients. As frequent authors and lecturers
on product liability and litigation defense topics, as well as active
members of the Defense Research Institute, Illinois Association
of Defense Counsel and similar groups, our lawyers know the latest
trends and plaintiff strategies–and how to beat them with
the best defense tactics.
