$17,385,000 – Product Liability

Tommy Hastings handled this high profile case involving over the counter medication that was contaminated with bacteria which caused the injury and death of several children nationwide. Tommy took the lead and was the only attorney to acquire significant settlements on behalf of his three clients. Following the resolution of all cases, Tommy continued working on the case as he worked closely with the FDA and Department of Justice to help secure a conviction of the CEO of one of the defendant companies. Tommy’s final action in the case was attending the sentencing hearing for the CEO with his clients as they spoke to the court about their loss. The court imposed the maximum penalty, thanks in large part to the bravery of these parents.
