| State
and federal laws provide consumers with remedies for products
that cause personal injuries. We have been leaders in some
of the most important personal injury products liability
cases over the past decade, including several involving
dangerous drugs or prescription medicines with dangerous
and undisclosed side effects. |

Cabraser has successfully represented scores of clients
in individual lawsuits across America who suffered serious
heart or lung damage after ingesting the diet drugs fenfluramine
(Pondimin) and/or dexfenfluramine (Redux), popularly known
as "Fen-Phen." In California, we were appointed
to the Plaintiffs' Executive Committee in the California
Coordinated Fen-Phen Proceedings. We were also appointed
to the Plaintiffs' Management Committee to organize and
direct all Fen-Phen cases filed in federal court. |

August 28, 2000, in the federal diet drug cases, the United
States District Court approved a settlement with American
Home Products Corporation, the manufacturer of two diet
drugs, valued at $4.75 billion for up to six million consumers. |
