With 147 lawyers, Greenberg Traurig’s products liability practice represents only 7.4 percent of the firm’s head count. But when the chips are down, its products liability litigators pack a big punch.

“When you need someone to dive into a new case, parachute in to a challenging jurisdiction, no matter who you’re up against, we can do that,” says Lori Cohen, a shareholder in Atlanta who heads Greenberg Traurig’s pharmaceutical, medical device and health care litigation practice group. The firm has done just that in trials involving Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.’s gastric reflux drug metoclopramide and Medtronic Inc.’s spinal cord devices.
