Ethan works closely with firefighters and individuals who have suffered serious health consequences linked to prolonged PFAS exposure.

Ethan represents numerous governmental entities—including states, counties, cities, towns, and townships—in nationwide opioid litigation against pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors, and related entities accused of deceptive marketing practices and contributing to the over-distribution of highly addictive opioid medications. This litigation sought accountability for conduct alleged to have fueled the ongoing opioid epidemic and imposed substantial economic and public health burdens on communities across the country.

Further, Ethan has been involved in litigation on behalf of thousands of residents of Flint, Michigan, pursuing claims related to the City’s water crisis after exposure to toxic lead and other harmful contaminants.
