You don't need the product names or old records. No fee unless we recover compensation for your family.
Decisions
- American Home Prod. v. Liberty Mut. Ins. Co. (1983). The court held that Liberty Mutual's policies are triggered by injury-in-fact during the policy period (neither exposure nor manifestation alone), so Liberty must defend American Home Products until it confines each claim, and it largely rejected both sides' summary judgment theories.
