Exposure and risk created by products liability laws are well known to companies involved in the manufacture, sale, and/or distribution of commercial products. The risks are significant from business, reputational, and financial standpoints. Consequently, we appreciate that our clients have business and reputational concerns that must be carefully evaluated and woven into a successful defense strategy, so we start any representation by defining clear cut objectives with our clients.

Attorneys at Brehm, Nofer & McCarter have served as appellate counsel in the state and federal courts for both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and have successfully briefed and argued appeals in the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, the intermediate Pennsylvania and New Jersey state appellate courts, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Our appellate attorneys frequently work on appeals for clients who were represented in the trial court or before an administrative agency and simply want to have a successful outcome affirmed after an appeal is pursued by an opponent.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That is why many of our clients retain the Firm to assist in developing strategies to avoid claims before lawsuits are filed.
