Arnold & Porter represents pharma and medical device companies in complex litigation, including class actions, multi-district litigations (MDLs), and state-coordinated proceedings, as well as multinational disputes. The firm defends clients in product liability litigation and develops strategies to resolve entire litigation portfolios. Known for navigating complex scientific, regulatory, and technical issues, the team has secured favorable outcomes in some of the country’s most challenging jurisdictions. The practice is co-chaired by New York’s Anand Agneshwar, who represents pharma companies as national, strategic, trial, and appellate counsel; having, for example, served as co-lead counsel in Sanofi’s Zantac MDL. Anand also advises on litigation risks and the litigation and compliance impact of potential legislation. Also in New York, Arthur Brown serves as national and coordinating counsel in bet-the-company litigations. Washington DC-based Daphne O’Connor, who also co-chairs the practice, focuses on managing and trying complex scientific and medical product liability and mass tort cases. Paige Sharpe, also in DC, has extensive experience defending clients against personal injury claims in state and federal court, at both trial and appellate court levels.
