Fen-Phen Trials May Test New Damages System

If the 53,000 fen-phen users who opted out of the national settlement agreement with Wyeth Corp. were expecting a simple negotiation to net a larger check, they were wrong. After a string of headline-grabbing losses, the drug company's lawyers have been quietly collecting verdicts of their own. In Georgia, as in other jurisdictions, Wyeth is asking to split the trials into two parts in a procedure called "reverse bifurcation," which protects the company from "back door" punitive damages.

The A-List (51-200)

Lawyers like to lament the passing of their fabled past, when partners knew each other on sight, firms contented themselves to operating in one ZIP code and junior associates were not a menacing anonymous horde threatening to take out their frustrations via the blogosphere. As it happens, in the big-firm world those days aren't gone, they've just moved to the Am Law Second Hundred ranks, where firms are prosperous and growing steadily but retain the possibility of old-fashioned cohesion.
