Astroworld Litigation
Astroworld has become one of the deadliest crowd-control disasters in the United States in years. Music festivals are supposed to be a safe place for guests to enjoy themselves and for families to send their loved ones. However, when the right response plans and precautions are not in place and followed, concerts can become very dangerous - and deadly.
LAS VEGAS MASS SHOOTING

IVC FILTER LITIGATION
Inferior Vena Cava filters (IVC filters) are spider-like medical devices inserted into the inferior vena cava to catch blood clots before they move to the lungs. Reports of adverse events and product problems with IVC Filters have grown and have caused the Federal Drug Administration (“FDA”) to perform post market surveillance studies on these devices.

HURRICANE HARVEY LITIGATION
In the wake of the largest natural disaster to ever hit South Texas, residents in Corpus Christi, Rockport, Port Aransas, and the greater Houston area are facing an even worse disaster: the callous practices of the insurance industry. Their tactics, which include delaying claims with needless wait times and “fraud investigation” or denying valid claims outright, slowing recovery.
