Shook, Hardy & Bacon attorneys based in Miami have been extremely busy over the past year, notably handling high-profile products liability cases.
Shook, which defends Philip Morris, the country’s largest cigarette manufacturer, has first chaired more of the company’s Engle progeny trials than any other law firm since the first in 2009. Engle cases can be difficult to defend because the jury is instructed that cigarettes are defective and the tobacco industry was negligent and concealed material information about the dangers of cigarettes.
