Ernie Goodwin and Frank Manchisi (Partners-White Plains, NY) participated in a Q&A session on "Product Liability" in the February 2021 Financier Worldwide In-Depth Feature. Financier Worldwide canvasses the opinions of leading professionals around the world on the latest trends in product liability. When asked about factors that might affect future claims, Ernie and Frank responded, "There likely will be an increase in claims related to manufacturing plants or facilities that were shut down for large parts of 2020. There also will be more claims related to travel. Plaintiffs' counsel will likely be more open to different kinds of product liability claims in an attempt to cover for any 2020 economic shortfalls."
