David Woods Email & Phone Number

An experienced regulatory and trial attorney with extensive first-chair trial experience, having tried numerous jury trials over the last 20 years. Many of these trials were within the last several years, where I have first-chaired a number of multimillion-dollar cases to very favorable results. I am also experienced in the complex regulatory schemes governing a variety of products, including e-cigarettes, traditional tobacco products, CBD, and cannabis. I have represented clients in high-stakes regulatory matters and high-profile state and federal litigation throughout the country, and have served as national coordinating counsel and lead trial counsel for Fortune 500 companies. I have extensive experience in handling large-scale, multi-defendant disputes and regulatory matters that involve highly complex legal and scientific issues. My cases have also involved significant rulings. One such case was litigated to the United States Supreme Court and resulted in a landmark ruling on punitive damage limitations. Another case was recognized by Missouri Lawyers Weekly in its list of most significant defense verdicts in 2006. I am the recipient of Missouri Lawyers Weekly Law Firm Leaders Award for 2014, which recognizes leaders who made the biggest impact to the law and legal world in the preceding year.Please click on Contact and Personal Info for a link to the Hughes Hubbard website, which has a Legal Notices & Methodologies page containing additional information regarding social media and award methodologies.
