Asbestos and Toxic Tort

In the constantly changing environment of toxic tort and asbestos litigation, Product Group attorneys provide results-driven, cost-effective legal services to defendants by crafting creative, practical solutions to a company’s litigation. Each case is unique, and thus MMM&K attorneys take a case by-case approach while remaining cognizant of the need to minimize future litigation risk and safeguarding the value of clients. We have defended cases involving a wide range of chemicals, solvents, resins, paints, construction products, joint compounds and wall boards, roofing materials, floor tiles, refractory products, boilers, pumps and valves, brakes and other automobile components, refineries, shipyards, and industrial and chemical premises. Product Group attorneys also provide manufacturers, distributors, importers, and retailers with high quality litigation support in cases involving exposure to crystalline silica in construction products such as stone slabs and tile, including the preparation of corporate and expert witnesses. We have an in-depth understanding of regulations, industry standards, state-of-the art defenses, industrial hygiene defenses, medical defenses, and experts employed in these matters.

We have experience throughout New England and nationwide in defending companies, including Fortune 500 corporations, small family businesses, and not-for-profit companies in asbestos and toxic tort cases. We have been appointed as national coordinating counsel by numerous corporations and insurers. In that role, we routinely craft client-tailored national discovery and trial strategy, including the development of corporate and expert witnesses.
