Morrison Foerster is active on behalf of harma and medical device companies in product liability matters, providing ‘high-level litigation strategy’, such as in mass torts and class actions, and 'efficient day-to-litigation counsel’. The team also provides regulatory compliance guidance, including advising clients on product recalls and how product liability law applies to cutting-edge products, such as those driven by AI. Co-chairing the practice from San Diego and San Francisco, seasoned litigator Erin Bosman defends clients in high-stakes mass tort cases and helps them navigate complex, company-threatening product liability crises. Notably, Bosman represented McKesson in MDL and state court proceedings related to alleged permanent hair loss after breast cancer treatment with Taxotere. A key figure in the practice, Julie Park is experienced in managing complex, multijurisdictional litigation in both state and federal courts, while also guiding clients through product recalls.
