Covington lawyers regularly advise clients on strategies for anticipating and managing liability risk posed by new technologies, and this experience has direct application to the liability risks posed by nanotechnology.  We regularly advise on product recall and in an advisory capacity for clients updating their crisis management plans and procedures.  Review is even more critical if you are developing or implementing novel technologies or applications.

We also serve as defense counsel in product liability and toxic tort lawsuits, and as national coordinating counsel or strategic advisors for companies and trade associations involved in national or multi-state liability actions.  Our practice is multidisciplinary in nature, requiring the integration of business savvy and industry experience, along with sophisticated litigation management and trial expertise.

Our mass tort and class action litigation experience has been gained in many of the areas in which nanotechnology has had its strongest impacts, including pharmaceutical products and cosmetics, medical devices, chemicals, and food and beverage products and their packaging.  Our product liability clients include companies and trade groups in the pharmaceutical, medical device, food, alcohol beverage, dietary supplement, chemical, construction equipment, energy, railroad, software, automotive, and mining industries.
