Denver, CO personal injury lawyer George McLaughlin talks about what makes his firm different from others and the types of cases he handles. One of the distinguishing features of the firm lies in its emphasis on specific niches aligned with the principal attorney’s particular interests. These niches encompass cases such as electric blanket fires, fractures in artificial hip stems attributed to metal fatigue, and incidents involving electric pressure cookers opening under pressure. The firm has directed its practice towards these specific products, managing repetitive cases and amassing comprehensive libraries of documents and depositions. For instance, in situations involving hip failure from metal fatigue, the firm possesses extensive documentation, facilitating the efficient handling of new cases with a pre-existing understanding of the product and associated issues.

Considerable time and effort have been invested in developing these resources, rendering them applicable across diverse cases. Even when faced with confidential documents requiring return, the firm’s expertise enables strategic requests, ultimately saving time and expenses for clients and co-counsel. Another noteworthy aspect of the firm is the direct, hands-on involvement of the principal attorney in all aspects of the work. Delegation is not a practice; instead, responsibility and oversight consistently rest with the principal attorney. Clients have direct access to the principal attorney, who is personally engaged in every detail of each case.

The firm’s primary focus is on personal injury cases, particularly within the domain of product liability. It specializes in representing individuals who have sustained injuries due to product failure, malfunction, improper design, or manufacturing in consumer products or medical devices. The firm leverages its accumulated expertise over the years to take on cases where injuries result from product defects.
