A few of our notable “litigation stopper” victories include:</p> <ul> <li>Our novel specific-causation <em>Daubert</em> strategy in a federal MDL and in state courts in Delaware and New Jersey involving the drug Seroquel resulted in the exclusion of the plaintiffs’ specific-causation experts and summary judgment for our client in six separate opinions; it also prevented the plaintiffs from trying any of their bellwether cases in the federal MDL or consolidated state court litigation in Delaware. <li>In the only “Fen-Phen” case tried against a phentermine defendant, we obtained a directed verdict in a Fayette, Mississippi, state court case based on scientific evidence issues. <li>Our work as lead <em>Daubert</em> counsel on behalf of ConocoPhillips, General Atomics and Chevron in suits alleging that ionizing radiation/natural uranium ore dust caused 18 different types of cancers resulted in the exclusion of the plaintiffs’ key expert testimony and summary judgment for all defendants. This victory prevented any cases from going to trial and resulted in favorable settlements for all defendants. <li>Our complete <em>Daubert</em> victory on behalf of Verizon Wireless, which resulted in the exclusion of six expert witnesses who asserted that wireless phones cause brain cancer, has prevented any case alleging health effects from wireless phone use from going to trial. <li>We served as Denny’s national counsel in litigation alleging that Denny’s defrauded its customers by failing to disclose the sodium content of its food. Through an aggressive motion practice, we obtained the early dismissal of classes in two jurisdictions (Illinois and New Jersey), thereby preventing the types of “tag-along” suits that typically follow such consumer fraud class actions.</li></ul> </div> <div class="name"><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="viewall" id="serviceOverviewViewAll"><span class="expandAll">+ Read More</span><span class="collapseAll">- Show Less</span></a></div> </li> </ul> </div> <style> .relinfo {display:none;} </style> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $("#relInfoAccordionUL").relInfoExpander(); $("#expandCollapseAll").relInfoExpandAll($("#relInfoAccordionUL")); $(".relinfo").show(); }); </script> <div class="relinfo active op_"> <div class="listing generallisting expandcollapse"> <div class="expandcollapse" id="expandCollapseAll"><span class="ExpandAll"><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="expandAll">Expand All</a></span><span class="CollapseAll"><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="collapseAll">Collapse All</a></span></div> <div class="level1" id="relInfoAccordionUL"> <div class="accordionLi general firstrow collapsed"> <div class="name relInfoAnchorName"><h3><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="relInfoAnchor">Experience Highlights</a></h3></div> <div class="content relInfoDiv relInforExp"> <ul> <li><em><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">National Counsel, Toyota Class Actions</span></em>: We served as lead counsel in the economic loss class actions in the Toyota Unintended Acceleration (UA) Marketing, Sales Practices and Products Liability Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) in the Central District of California. The UA MDL was the largest mass tort litigation in the country and consisted of more than 200 class actions and individual economic loss cases and more than 100 individual product liability cases transferred from every state and Puerto Rico, as well as claims by foreign plaintiffs seeking to represent Toyota customers from every country in the world outside the United States. We also served as co-lead counsel for the California state court economic loss class actions relating to UA, including the coordinated California class action proceedings in the complex litigation court in Los Angeles. <em><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"></span></em> <li><em><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">National Trial Team & Leadership Team, AstraZeneca Seroquel Litigation</span></em>: Alston & Bird was a member of AstraZeneca’s national trial team in the Seroquel litigation, the largest mass tort pharmaceutical litigation pending in 2010. Alston & Bird, in conjunction with AstraZeneca's other national counsel, has had unprecedented success in this litigation through the exclusion of plaintiffs’ specific causation expert testimony in the vast majority of bellwether cases in the federal MDL, Delaware state court and New Jersey state court. An article in <em>The AmLaw Litigation Daily</em> emphasized the success AstraZeneca had with this defense strategy: “A pattern is forming in the ongoing product liability litigation over AstraZeneca's antipsychotic Seroquel, and it's not pretty for the plaintiffs.” While other companies manufacturing drugs of the same class have paid over a billion dollars in settlement, the plaintiffs in Seroquel litigation were unable to obtain a favorable verdict, leading to a very favorable resolution. <li><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"><em>National Coordinating Counsel, Verizon Wireless Cell Phone Brain Cancer Litigation</em></span>: We are coordinating counsel and trial counsel for Verizon Wireless in both “no injury” consumer protection actions alleging deceptive sales and marketing practices on behalf of proposed classes of wireless phone users, as well as a series of cases alleging that wireless phone use caused the plaintiffs’ brain tumors. We obtained a complete <em>Daubert</em> victory that resulted in the exclusion of six expert witnesses who asserted that wireless phones cause brain cancer. The plaintiff appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, and Jane Thorpe presented argument to the appellate panel on behalf of the entire wireless industry; less than one month later, the Fourth Circuit affirmed our earlier victory. <li><em><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">National Trial Team, The Dow Chemical Company, Asbestos Litigation</span></em>: We serve on the national trial team for Dow subsidiary Union Carbide Corporation’s (UCC) asbestos litigation. In the last two years alone, we have tried five cases to verdict and appeared for jury selection or partially tried a dozen more prior to resolution in difficult jurisdictions, including South Florida; Madison County, Illinois; Baltimore; Philadelphia; Pittsburgh; Boston; South and North Georgia; and Minnesota. Alston & Bird has also helped manage large dockets and resolve cases in several jurisdictions, including Florida; Georgia; Baltimore; Madison County, Illinois; and Pennsylvania. Using an efficient client-focused internal team and a “virtual law firm” working model with local law firms, the firm has helped to streamline the process for identifying and defending problematic cases (through trial if necessary) for UCC for cases numbering in the hundreds since 2002. <li><em><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">Food and Beverage Consumer Fraud/False Advertising</span></em>: We have represented major food and beverage companies in litigation against the not-for-profit Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) and we have beaten CSPI in every case we have defended. For example: <ul> <li>Denny’s Corp. retained us to represent it in two purported consumer fraud/false advertising class actions, which were the first to allege consumer fraud and breach of warranty for failing to disclose the sodium content of a restaurant’s food. Through aggressive motion practice, we obtained the early dismissal of both actions before any discovery, thus saving the client time and money and limiting the number of “tag-along” suits that typically follow such novel claims. <li>We defended Coca-Cola in litigation alleging false advertising in connection with a product, Enviga, that Coca-Cola markets as “The Calorie Burner.” Focusing on the scientific issues raised by the plaintiff’s weight loss claims, we obtained summary judgment (affirmed by the Third Circuit Court of Appeals) under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and negotiated favorable resolutions of two copycat class actions and related government investigations (FTC and state attorney general investigations) into the marketing of Enviga that allowed Coca-Cola to continue its Enviga marketing campaign. <li>We are defending McDonald’s famed Happy Meals in a lawsuit filed by CSPI seeking to eliminate McDonald’s ability to market Happy Meals featuring toys because of allegations related to childhood obesity. </li></ul></li></ul> <div class="viewall"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150413114500/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/products-liability/?section=experience">View All</a></div> <div class="clear"></div> </div> </div> <div class="accordionLi general collapsed"> <div class="name relInfoAnchorName"><h3><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="relInfoAnchor">News</a></h3></div> <div class="content relInfoDiv relInforNews"> <ul class="accordionlist"> <li> <div class="title"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150413114500/http://www.alston.com/news/top-100-verdicts-2014-nlj/"><i>National Law Journal</i> Ranks Two Alston & Bird Cases among “Top 100 Verdicts of 2014”</a> </div> <div class="abstract">Alston & Bird represented clients in two of the country’s largest verdicts of 2014 as determined by <em>The National Law Journal</em>.
