Craig Zimmerman has been a practicing lawyer for over 33 years. Almost all of his career has focused on mass tort litigation in all of its manifestations, both products liability and environmental. He has served as lead counsel to a Fortune 100 company in several putative nation-wide class actions; liaison counsel to the defense group in a significant environmental MDL; lead counsel to the funder/principal beneficiary in a controversial but successful asbestos bankruptcy Chapter 11 proceeding; and as national coordinating counsel, responsible for managing a team of more than 400 lawyers and paralegals at 36 different firms, defending cases in 44 states. His current scholarship focuses on the intersection of complexity, litigation and legal theory.
