A Message From the Editor

Rate increases imposed widely across the industry have even trickled down to lower end work, such as paralegals and litigation support specialists. That's according to our first item today, which has details. Also, the first of about 100 toxic tort cases stemming from a medical device plant's allegedly dangerous emissions has resulted in a defense win. Reporter Aleeza Furman has insights into the trial.

Thanks for reading!
