Ms. Graham is actively representing thousands of injured victims in various cases against major pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers.

She has also represented hundreds of families injured by environmental contaminants, including radon, arsenic and rocket fuel, resulting in confidential settlements in excess of $25 million. Ms. Graham also has vast experience as a consultant to other mass tort firms that seek her advice in structuring their cases.
