The food, cosmetics and dietary supplements industries remain a consistent target of putative class action litigation, with plaintiffs’ counsel continuing to scrutinize the labels of FDA-regulated consumer products for potential lawsuits. In this opening session, our esteemed co-chairs will set the stage for the conference with a high-level “state of the industry” and a statistical analysis of the last year’s case filings.
