 Accomplishments The Complex Litigation Division handles unique cases requiring specialized expertise. • Obtained a settlement for more than $12.5 million against McKinsey & Company for its role in working with opioid companies, helping those companies promote their drugs, and profiting from the opioid epidemic. 


• Obtained a proposed settlement in the amount of $507 million with the three largest drug distributors (Cardinal Health, McKesson, and AmerisourceBergen) related to their legal duty to refuse to ship opioids to pharmacies that submitted suspicious drug orders. The settlement also involved Johnson & Johnson, regarding whether it misled patients and doctors about the addictive nature of opioid drugs. • Continued investigations regarding issues that significantly impact Hoosiers, including the nationwide opioid crisis, to determine whether additional action could be pursued to obtain relief. • Assisted Consumer Protection Division in its investigation of Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google and Twitter to determine whether those businesses have engaged in abusive, deceptive or unfair practices that have negatively affected Hoosiers. 


• Assisted the Consumer Protection Division in continued prosecution of non-profit Wildlife in Need and its president, Tim Stark, as first chair in a bench trial resulting in 1) a finding of personal liability against Stark; 2) relocation of more than 100 exotic animals; 3) receivership, which will allow the State of Indiana to recoup its costs for bringing the action. • Assisted the Asset Recovery and Bankruptcy Litigation Section as lead counsel in a consolidated case involving two semi-trailer crashes causing damage to a bridge by successfully obtaining a settlement for the Indiana Department of Transportation in the total amount of $735,000.
