Morgan Lewis Bolsters Consumer Class Action and Product Liability Team with Strategic Hires

In a move signifying growth and expansion, Morgan Lewis has added three notable additions to its consumer class action and product liability team – April Nelson Ross, Rachel Raphael, and Mohamed Awan. This hiring spree signals the global law firm’s increased emphasis on bolstering its capabilities to handle major class actions and product-liability cases, especially those correlating to the transportation industry.

Firm attorneys, Nelson Ross, Raphael, and Awan, previously of Crowell & Moring, bring valuable expertise to the team with their history of focusing on consumer class action, mass torts, and product risk management for transport-sector clients. Their skill set and experience deems them apt for addressing the complex issues that big corporations face in these areas.
Morgan Lewis stated on Monday that this continues their ongoing expansion especially in major legal hubs like Washington, DC, where Nelson Ross and Raphael will be based, and Chicago, Awan’s base.

This addition to the team is especially vital given the frequency and potential financial implications of class-action lawsuits and product liability issues. As corporations continue to navigate the litigious landscape, the need for experienced, expert legal counsel continues to rise.

The team’s rich expertise in areas such as consumer class actions, mass torts, and product risk management, positions Morgan Lewis to better service their clients, especially those in the transportation industry. The move also reaffirms the firm’s position in the market, demonstrating its commitment to meeting the needs of its clients in an increasingly complex and challenging legal environment.
