Known as the “case killer” for his success in securing defense verdicts, judgments, dismissals or favorable settlements, trial and appellate lawyer Steven Weisburd has more than 30 years’ experience litigating complex civil disputes, mass tort cases and class actions for major corporate clients and product manufacturers, including high-profile cases of national and interna-tional significance with billions of dollars in potential exposure. Weisburd has developed a reputation for winning the unwinnable, and has become a go-to lawyer for clients seeking to derail bet-the-company litigation through tactically executed legal arguments and vigorous advocacy. Beyond being an extraordinary litigator, Weisburd was selected by Carlton Fields as managing shareholder of its Los Angeles office this year. In addition to lead-ing the firm’s efforts to continue to grow Carlton Fields’ robust litigation practice and other practice areas, and serving on the firm’s national Board of Directors, Weisburd is deeply committed to mentoring younger lawyers.
