Mass tort attorneys frequently work in "virtual law firms." These groups grew out of the need for attorneys from multiple firms to efficiently collaborate on mass tort litigation. The model brings together the strengths and specialized experience of a range of attorneys across firms, often forming sub-teams to function as national coordinating counsel, discovery team, trial team, experts team, settlement team, etc. On Feb. 10, Katie Maechler of Maslon joins Sherrie Armstrong Davis, Todd P. Davis, and Nancy Erfle at the International Association of Defense Counsel Midyear Meeting to present on how to maximize effective defense of mass torts in a virtual law team setting.
