Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner

Best-known for its Midwestern offering but also increasingly able to resource matters utilizing practitioners on both coasts, Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner HRO‘s Missouri-centred mass torts and product liability team is particularly effective at defending life sciences clients in MDLs. St Louis-based trial lawyer Bettina Strauss works very well with other law firms, whether it be in the capacity as national or regional counsel, and excels in developing compelling arguments (and securing early dismissals through Daubert challenges) through very effective collaboration with medical and scientific experts. Dan Ball has an excellent reputation for trying a variety of product liability cases, including many within the pharmaceuticals and medical devices space.  Timothy Hasken co-heads the team alongside Strauss and has first-chair trial experience in both jury and bench trials within the life sciences sector.
