After more than 30 years in product liability and mass tort, Susan knows her field inside and out.
Susan is a passionate advocate for clients in state, federal and appellate courts in asbestos litigation and other toxic tort matters. Having spent her career in the Philadelphia area, she is extensively experienced at defending clients in notoriously difficult jurisdictions. She’s also well used to overseeing a high volume of cases in an extremely busy docket and taking a broader, big picture view of how each case will affect a client’s overall position.
Susan has collaborated with many of the same team members since finishing law school in the early 90s and is deeply familiar with both her team and her practice area. She has also focused on the same client for many of those years, devoting much of her time to a multinational conglomerate corporation.
With a gift for connecting with people, Susan works extensively with each case’s witnesses for both discovery and trial. Her natural empathy and her knowledge of the field help her elicit useful testimony, and the self-confidence she’s developed after 30 years in litigation serves clients well both in courtrooms and in settlement negotiations.
Known as an efficient, responsive attorney who reports clearly and frequently to clients, Susan is most of all known for securing the best results possible.
