Exceptional Counsel in a Complex Product Liability Dispute

Our company faced a significant product liability lawsuit that threatened our reputation and financial stability. From our initial consultation, Matt Alva demonstrated a command of the intricate legal and technical details that was immediately reassuring. His background in defending such cases was evident; he didn't just react to the plaintiff's claims but proactively deconstructed their argument with precise, fact-driven strategy. Matt's recognition in product liability and mass tort litigation is clearly well-earned. He managed a voluminous discovery process with meticulous organization, kept our leadership team clearly informed without unnecessary legalese, and his negotiation posture was both firm and pragmatic. The result was a favorable settlement that protected our interests far better than we anticipated. For any business navigating the high-stakes arena of commercial or product liability litigation in Chicago, Matt Alva at Riley Safer Holmes & Cancila is an outstanding choice. His four years of focused experience belie a strategic maturity that delivered a critical positive outcome for us.
