Skikos, Crawford, Skikos & Joseph represents clients in mass tort as well as single injury cases. Our approach to evaluating and handling both types of cases consists of careful evaluation of the merits of the case and a detailed workup and preparation of the case to achieve the best results possible for our clients. Many mass torts we work on are coordinated nationally in the federal courts and on a statewide basis before single judges for investigation, discovery and pre-trial work, before being sent back to their home jurisdictions for trial. Our attorneys often take leadership roles in these coordinated proceedings, where we work with other select firms approved by the courts on litigation strategy, law and motion and discovery. Our lawyers then take the individual cases to trial where necessary after the coordinated proceedings are concluded, or resolve the cases through settlement. Our principal attorneys have practiced together since the early 1990s. At the law firm of Lopez, Hodes, Restaino, Milman & Skikos, they helped build that firm's national pharmaceutical drug and medical device litigation practice. Since the creation of Skikos Crawford Skikos & Joseph, our reputation for quality legal representation, especially in the area of mass torts, has continued to grow.
