Covington Named Law360 Product Liability Group Of The Year

February 26, 2024, Law360

Law360 named Covington a Product Liability Practice Group of the Year, and the accompanying profile included commentary from Mike Imbroscio, Andrew Stanner, and Emily Ullman about Covington’s expertise in the product liability space.

Mike shared that among the strengths of the firm are its trial lawyers and a unique strategic perspective that stems from experience both in mass tort litigation and the industries the firm represents. He said, “I think we know the playbook of the mass tort plaintiffs bar, and we can help counsel clients in responding to that playbook and in helping them develop arguments that demonstrate that their actions were appropriate and that they should prevail.”

Watching younger lawyers come up through the group has been one of the most rewarding aspects of leading the team, according to Mike. “They are some of the best mass tort lawyers of their generation, and that brings me tremendous pride in the practice that we've developed and what we can offer to clients. That's really gratifying and really satisfying, as I look back over the building of this practice,” Mike said.

Emily highlighted this strength for the practice group as well, telling Law360 that as someone who grew into the group since arriving at the firm as an associate, the group's leadership and training of junior attorneys and collaborative culture is what makes the group as strong as it is.

Andrew further touted the firm's unique mix of lawyers across practice areas, saying they really work well together. “On large cases, it's important to be able to rely on colleagues across the firm,” he said.
