Based out of its Cleveland, Chicago and San Francisco offices, Tucker Ellis LLP regularly picks up key roles as national, regional and trial counsel on mass tort disputes throughout the country. Toxic tort work runs the gamut from defense against claims alleging personal injury, wrongful death and property damage caused by exposure to benzene and formaldehyde, as well as newer toxic torts including Super Absorbent Materials. The firm is particularly noted for its defense work in relation to asbestos contamination, with Cleveland-based team head Laura Kingsley Hong perhaps the most visible in the area as a result of her work as national counsel, including in trials.
