Mass Tort and Repetitive Exposure

The firm has been involved in significant mass tort litigation, having represented numerous defendants in asbestos, silica, dioxin, pollution, welding, tobacco, pharmaceutical and tire actions in Mississippi as well as in other jurisdictions. Mississippi has no state class action rule, and Watkins & Eager has successfully worked to defeat de facto classes. Working collaboratively with national counsel, the firm is also intimately involved in MDL litigation.
