Blogger Guest Blogger Series

Starting tomorrow, we begin a series for guest bloggers who already blog on torts at other sites.  We have a nice mix of plaintiff-oriented and defense-oriented bloggers.  The posts will always appear on Fridays, but not necessarily consecutive Fridays.  Enjoy!

The first in the new guest blogger series is authored by James Beck of Drug and Device Law Blog.  Beck is counsel in Reed Smith's Philadelphia office.  He handles complex personal injury and product liability litigation. He has overseen the development of legal defenses, master briefs, appellate briefs, and dispositive motions in numerous high-profile mass torts.  He has also filed more than 60 appellate amicus curiae briefs, mostly on product liability issues.  In 2011, he received the Product Liability Advisory Council's John P. Raleigh Award, the highest honor given to an organization member. He is the lead author of the ALM treatise Drug and Medical Device Product Liability Litigation Deskbook.  Since 2006, Mr. Beck has been the lead blogger and co-host of the "Drug and Device Law Blog," which has been awarded the ABA's "Top 100" legal blog status for each of the last four years.
