Ellen Darling is a trial lawyer and her practice is concentrated in product liability
and commercial litigation including handling nationwide consumer products class
actions involving false and misleading advertising claims as well as “Made in
the USA” claims. She has managed and tried cases involving devastating or
life-ending injuries due to claimed product defects. A majority of her current
practice is focused on companies in the aesthetic and health and beauty industry,
and handling class actions and/or product liability claims for those companies.
Over her career, she has represented manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, medical
devices, food, cosmetics, aesthetic products, a variety of home products,
after-market accessories, motorcycles, machinery and other consumer products in
various types of litigation and pre-litigation claims. In addition, she represents
healthcare providers and lab companies in medical malpractice cases. Ellen also
handles NHTSA and CPSC reporting and recalls involving a variety of products.
Ellen understands clients are not in the business of defending against litigation and
that a trial is not always the ultimate goal. As a result, she frequently assists
clients in putting processes in place to attempt to reduce the risk of litigation to
their company and often provides in-person, free lunch-and-learn sessions to help
employees understand litigation risks related to document creation.
