Tucker Ellis LLP

Exhibiting expertise throughout the litigation continuum, Cleveland-headquartered firm Tucker Ellis LLP provides a cost-effective and collaborative service to life sciences clients in the defense of single plaintiff cases and aggregated proceedings. In addition, clients benefit from access to many lawyers with effective trial skills, including many who have secured victories to verdict in state and federal courts particularly on single plaintiff claims, as well as securing notable victories on MDLs/class actions in dispositive motions –  including through arguing federal pre-emption, as well as in Daubert hearings. In Chicago, Sherry Knutson is an acclaimed litigator who has tried cases to verdict in Illinois and beyond, as well as regularly serving as national co-ordinating counsel in multiple pharmaceutical mass torts. Cleveland-based Tariq Naeem co-heads the health and life sciences group alongside Knutson and is noted, in particular, for his deep scientific knowledge and ability to effectively work up company and expert witness testimony. Charissa Walker also continues to impress.
