Be a part of the automotive industry’s premier product liability litigation defense forum and ensure that you are prepared to cost-effectively defend against plaintiffs’ claims involving the most complicated issues
At a time when most companies are striving to reduce costs and trim staff, defending and managing complex product liability litigation can be an overwhelming task. And nowhere is this more apparent than in the automotive industry. Corporate attorneys and outside counsel for auto manufacturers and component part suppliers must find ways to reduce the costs of litigation while simultaneously dealing with the challenges of juror bias, sympathetic plaintiffs, and negative press. Add to this the new NHTSA roof crush standard and the impact that it is going to have on current and future litigation as well as the questions surrounding product liability claims against automotive companies that have emerged from bankruptcy. Defense counsel face a distinctly uphill battle in litigating and managing these claims and there is no room for error.
American Conference Institute’s 2nd Annual Forum on Defending and Managing Automotive Product Liability Litigation offers defense counsel the opportunity to obtain the strategies and insights needed to confront and overcome these challenges. Our faculty of expert in-house counsel from Ford, Takata, Key Safety Systems, Bosch, Kawasaki, and Continental Tire, as well as leading outside counsel and distinguished jurists will provide you with the knowledge necessary to:
- Manage the exorbitant cost of defending cases and evaluate which cases to settle and which to prepare for trial
- Defend against novel claims arising from the new NHTSA roof crush standard
- Ensure that the burdens of e-discovery do not undermine the defense’s case on the merits
- Manage complex litigation while operating with a smaller legal department and under tighter budget constraints
