Taft attorney Manny Herceg was quoted in the article “Nearly a dozen Indiana communities sue opioid industry in new flurry of suits,” which was published by the Indianapolis Business Journal on Jan. 8.

The article discusses the lawsuits filed in U.S. District Court in Indianapolis against opioid makers and distributors, “claiming the manufacturers aggressively pushed highly addictive, dangerous opioids, and falsely represented to doctors that patients would only rarely succumb to drug addiction.” Taft is leading a consortium of several law firms engaged in the effort.

Herceg is an experienced litigator who routinely represents individuals, companies and municipalities in state and federal courts and represents a number of municipalities throughout Indiana in lawsuits against manufacturers and distributors of opioids. He also focuses his practice on all matters facing municipalities throughout the state.
