O'Melveny & Myers LLP

Drawing upon deep bench strength on both East and West coasts, O'Melveny & Myers LLP has the resources and knowledge to handle a significant volume and range of product liability work in the life sciences space. The firm has gained particular acclaim for its strength at handling large-scale mass torts and MDLs, where it is appreciated for its leadership qualities as well as its ability to provide winning strategies at a motions stage and in bellwether trials. In addition, the team is very well-equipped to handle multi-pronged matters, and as well as being able to leverage a significant roster of white- collar/government investigations lawyers, also has numerous product liability lawyers who are equally comfortable dealing with private and public litigation. Recognized as a ‘go-to class action products liability lawyer’, Washington DC-based Steve Brody exemplifies this versatility and has been front and center of the firm’s high-profile work for Johnson & Johnson in resolving the claims of thousands of state and local governments through a combination of trial victories, appellate wins, and historic settlement negotiation. Brody co-heads the products liability and mass torts group alongside Los Angeles based Sabrina Strong.
