Social media in product liability litigation: Advantageous use by plaintiffs & defense strategies |
Date: February 14, 2019 |

Related Services: Product Liability |
Join partner Andrea Studley Knowles at the Boston Bar Association on February 14 for a brown bag lunch presentation on “Social Media in Product Liability Litigation: Advantageous Use By Plaintiffs & Defense Strategies.” While defendants’ use of social media against plaintiffs is fairly well understood, plaintiffs’ use of social media against defendants has not received as much attention. There are many on-line platforms where consumers/patients can voice their opinions about products and share their stories of alleged failures and injuries. What duty does a manufacturer have to track, preserve, investigate or report on-line complaints? In this program you will hear from attorneys on ways in which counsel for consumers/patients can utilize social media in litigation and the defensive strategies manufacturers’ counsel can employ. Learn more and register, here. |
