Message from Martin Healy, Jr., Section Chair

Welcome to the Products Liability Section. 

The Section publishes four newsletters annually.  They are a very important means of communication to the membership, keeping us up-to-date about recent developments in the case law, legislative and administrative rule changes and “how to” practice tips.  Along that line, I encourage you to submit an article to us on a products topic of interest.  The round table meetings at the winter and annual conventions give you an opportunity to network with other members and to have experienced products practitioners discuss your individual cases.  The list server also gives you an opportunity to communicate with other experienced practitioners on a day-to-day basis. 

I hope you will be an active member of the Section and that it will be the same tremendous benefit to your products practice as it has been to mine.

Sincerely,
Martin Healy, Jr.
Chair
