STEVEN WEISBURD
Shareholder and Managing Partner, Los Angeles Office
Carlton Fields, LLP
In his more than 30 years of litigating class actions and mass tort cases for major corporate clients and product manufacturers, trial and appellate litigator Steven B. Weisburd has time and again brought home defense verdicts, dismissals, or favorable settlements, including in high-profile cases of national and international significance with billions of dollars of potential exposure.
Recently, Mattel and Fisher-Price turned to Weisburd to lead their defense in the coordinated California and Delaware state court proceedings arising from infant fatalities allegedly related to the Rock ’n Play Sleeper, which was recalled in 2019. This past year, Weisburd secured summary judgment in the first two Rock ’n Play Sleeper cases to reach judicial ruling, and also co-led a team that secured dismissal of a putative nationwide class action against Johnson & Johnson arising from alleged marketing of Tylenol Rapid Release Gelcaps.
