Philip Morris USA Inc. v. Williams
Philip Morris USA
2002 - 2007
Our firm was co-counsel for Philip Morris USA in Philip Morris USA Inc. v. Williams, 127 S.Ct. 1057 (2007), a seminal case in which the US Supreme Court ruled that punitive damages may not be imposed for harms suffered by nonparties. Our firm continues to represent Philip Morris USA in Williams as the case has been remanded back to the Oregon Supreme Court.
