DGS can be called upon to handle a broad range of simple negligence, malpractice and products liability matters.  In the drug and medical devices area, we have defended cases involving DES, the DPT vaccine, a rabies vaccine, heart bypass equipment, diet drugs, and artificial heart valves.  In those representations, we have worked closely with co-defendant physicians and health care facilities to develop a coordinated defense to medical malpractice liability litigation. 

Our products liability attorneys also handle product liability cases on behalf of aircraft parts manufacturers, chemical and paint manufacturers, railroad equipment manufacturers, farm equipment manufacturers, mining and construction equipment manufacturers, steel fabricating companies, and many others.  We have also maintained long term relationships with a number of automobile manufacturers. 

Because of our past successes and extensive experience in this area, we recently assumed nationwide responsibility for defending one automobile manufacturer and a drug manufacturer in certain categories of frequently filed complex product liability cases.  Our product liability lawyers have also worked frequently with counsel across the country in cases involving class actions or matters of national concern to our clients, such as the DTP and diet pill litigation and litigation in the automotive industry relating to the use of passive passenger restraints.  Our familiarity with numerous engineering and medical experts providing litigation support provides efficient access to the technical knowledge critical in the defense of these cases.
