										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not only is Matt Malinowski seasoned at representing clients in highly complex, “bet the company” trials and litigation, but he also excels at masterminding the case strategy and skillfully orchestrating results. An avid sports enthusiast, Matt&#8217;s competitive nature makes him quick on his feet, and allows him to excel under pressure and improvise on the fly.</p>
<p>With a wealth of experience in high-stakes litigation, Matt has tried cases in state and federal courts and has handled every level of trial advocacy, from voir dire all the way through closing, often in so-called “judicial hellhole” jurisdictions. In addition to his extensive trial work, he has copious experience conducting summary judgment and Daubert dispositive motions hearings, both pre-trial and during trial, in courts throughout the country. Matt often shares his knowledge and experience through presentations related to ethical and strategic trial strategies in high-profile litigation.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With an undergraduate degree in natural resources and a master&#8217;s in environmental science and engineering, Carter Thurman is driven by a strong work ethic and attention to detail. He enjoys focusing on the science in his defense of large corporations in products liability cases.</p>
<p>Carter prosecuted commercial contract claims against a large company that formerly co-owned and operated a chemical plant under both breach of contract and contractual indemnification causes of action with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake. He has represented large pharmaceutical companies in products liability litigation and has significant experience in motions practice, taking and defending fact and expert witness depositions, and leading eDiscovery efforts involving document collection from multiple federal agencies. His oral argument and trial experience includes directing and crossing witnesses and presenting opening and closing arguments. Carter relies on his prior work as a groundwater hydrologist to represent clients in toxic tort and groundwater contamination matters involving various chemicals, including PFAS.</p>
