As a trial attorney focusing on toxic tort matters, Erin understands that preparation in complex subject areas is key for offering clients the best defense.
Erin works with trial teams to represent clients at all phases of asbestos litigation, toxic tort claims and allegations of product or premises liability in both state and federal courts. In addition to asbestos matters, Erin defends clients in talc and glyphosate litigation as well as manufacturers and suppliers of other chemical and agricultural products.
Manufacturers and suppliers of automobiles, their parts and components; construction products including electrical and plumbing components; and power generation equipment are among the clients that have relied on Erin’s litigation strategies. Suppliers of raw talc and asbestos as well as insulation contractors also turn to Erin for counsel and litigation solutions.
Erin understands that knowing the law is not enough when preparing an optimal toxic tort defense. He enjoys collaborating with experts in a variety of fields both inside and outside the firm to stay on top of the science and create a winning case strategy. Erin also understands that going toe to toe with plaintiffs’ experts at deposition is often where a case is won and that preparation is the key to success.
Clients value his energy and curiosity as well as his extensive litigation background. Erin also has experience in construction defense, real estate disputes, and has represented banks and loan servicers in mortgage fraud–based claims, all of which inform his view on building a solid defense strategy.
Prior to earning his law degree, Erin interned with the Long Beach City Prosecutor and Orange County Public Defender.
