Episode Details

This program examines how implicit and systemic bias shapes key aspects of consumer litigation, from product safety standards and workplace practices to damages calculations, insurance claims handling, and medical treatment. Drawing on real-world examples and current data, Molly McKibben, partner at Greene Broillet & Wheeler, LLP, explores how unchecked assumptions can affect case valuation, liability theories, and client outcomes. The session challenges attorneys to critically evaluate the data, expert opinions, and institutional practices underlying their cases in order to more effectively advocate for fair and equitable results.

The Litigation Section is chaired by Rachael Kogen.
