I am a litigator who represents clients in individual cases and class actions. I focus on developing strategies to achieve success at the trial court level and to ensure those victories can be upheld on appeal. I have significant experience briefing and arguing constitutional questions, punitive damages issues, jury instructions, and other complex (and often unsettled) legal issues. I frequently serve as legal issues and appellate preservation counsel at trial and have been a member of approximately 30 trial teams, many of which were multiweek jury trials. I have represented manufacturers of a broad range of products, including cigarettes, smokeless tobacco products, prescription pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals. I also represent companies in complex commercial litigation and have significant experience responding to bankruptcy filings by adverse parties.In addition to my domestic litigation practice, I frequently collaborate with national litigation counsel to represent clients in novel litigation internationally. I have recently coordinated the defense of major matters in Latin America, the Middle East, and Europe.I maintain an active pro bono practice representing individuals and nonprofit organizations. I most recently worked with the Pennsylvania Innocence Project in a successful bid to have a judge vacate the convictions of three men wrongfully convicted of murder. I previously collaborated with New York City’s Legal Aid Society on class action litigation that resulted in increased rent subsidies for families with children on public assistance who were facing eviction.
