Social Inflation is Here to Stay: An Analysis of the Key Drivers of Social Inflation, and the Anatomy of a Nuclear Verdict

This presentation will offer strategies for navigating specific drivers of social inflation, including juror attitudes, shifting demographics, plaintiff attorney tactics, third party litigation funding, increased legal advertising, higher settlement values, and the rise of nuclear verdicts. We'll also review  and analyze the Charter Communications case that led to a $7.37 billion verdict in a single wrongful death matter.

Join us for a discussion of the erosion of the Exclusive Remedy and Employers' Immunity defenses in workers' compensation cases and the resulting rise of civil litigation..
