Edward Abbot, partner-in-charge of the New York office is moderating DRI's Defense Lawyers Asbestos Symposium. Additionally, he will be providing an overview and update on national cosmetic talc litigation. 

The Defense Lawyers Asbestos Symposium is a “defense-only” seminar, where defense attorneys and clients share meaningful lessons from the past year. The seminar provides attendees with up-to-date information about plaintiffs’ attorneys, their newest practices and tactics, and suggestions to combat the plaintiffs’ bar’s efforts. Attendees benefit from the private knowledge that led to both victories and losses in the last 12 months.
