Tell us about your top U.S. Supreme Court or federal appeals court victory over the past year and how you and your team achieved the win.

Lisa Blatt secured victory for her client in one of the most important federal preemption cases of the past year, Dolin v. GlaxoSmithKline LLC, where the Seventh Circuit reversed a $3 million jury verdict in favor of the widow of a Reed Smith partner who killed himself while taking a generic version of GSK’s antidepressant Paxil. In May 2019, the [U.S.] Supreme Court declined to review the decision, and upon remand, Lisa and her team defeated the plaintiff’s bid to reopen the judgment based on the Supreme Court’s intervening decision in Merck v. Albrecht.
