Maritime Multidistrict Litigation
Gallagher Sharp represented over 20 manufacturing defendants in this large piece of litigation. By having a working knowledge of each client’s products, use and exposure potential, Gallagher Sharp was able to negotiate a global dismissal for all of these manufacturing defendants. In addition, we represented other equipment manufacturers through the discovery and motion stage and were able to effectuate nuisance value settlements to resolve the entire Federal MDL.
