Mass Tort & Toxic Tort

Hollstein Keating attorneys have had a long and successful history of representing their clients in the defense of mass tort and toxic tort cases in the State and Federal Courts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.

The firm has represented international, national and regional manufacturers, distributors, contractors, bulk material suppliers, railroads, vessel owners and operators, as well as others in the defense of claims involving:

  • asbestos
  • silicone
  • DES
  • mixed dust
  • heavy metals
  • radiation
  • benzene
  • noise and other alleged harmful exposures

In addition, the firm has defended its clients in medical monitoring class action claims arising out of alleged exposure to toxic substances. The firm has also represented clients in disputes arising out of the interpretation of insurance policies and their application to these types of claims.

The firm represents these clients, either directly or through their insurance companies, and has acted as national coordinating counsel directing the defense of local counsel throughout the country.

We have urged the application and extension of various defenses by the courts on behalf of our clients and tailored the defense of each client to its particular needs. We use our experience, sophistication, and knowledge of the courts as well as our opponents to achieve the best possible results for our clients.
