Pulaski Law Firm attorney Leslie LaMacchia has been appointed as Federal/State Court Liaison Counsel on the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee of the JUUL multidistrict litigation under Judge William H. Orrick in the Northern District of California, [In Re: Juul Labs Inc., Marketing, Sales Practices, and Products Liability Litigation – cand-3:2019-md-02913]
Attorney Leslie LaMacchia was appointed to this leadership position to help build and manage the nationwide product liability litigation on behalf of those who allegedly suffered serious injury after use of a JUUL vaping device.
JUUL Labs is accused of manufacturing and distributing a dangerous vaping device that has more nicotine than similar devices and then exploiting social media marketing channels to reach the under-25 age demographic. The marketing techniques used by the company to sell its product were so successful that according to the FDA, youth vaping has grown to epidemic proportions.
Moreover, the severity of health complications associated with JUUL vape devices can include nicotine addiction and poisoning, seizures, stroke, lung problems and cardiovascular issues. Those allegedly injured by the devices include children, teens, and young adults.
Our attorneys are dedicated to helping the families of those who have suffered injury due to dangerous products, and we are holding JUUL accountable for the vaping devices it allegedly marketed to teens and young adults and for the injuries these youth may have suffered.
