WELCOME FROM
MIKE PAPANTONIO
Welcome to Mass Torts Made Perfect, where mass tort attorneys from across the country gather to learn from the most preeminent leaders in the field. In this issue of MTMP Magazine, you will find insights into the latest mass tort projects and information on the best tools and resources to grow your business
and expand your practice. Find out what trial attorneys are doing to help put the brakes on the human trafficking industry in this country, and how they’re working to hold Big Pharma accountable for the nation’s opioid epidemic. MTMP is the premier conference for mass torts and personal injury attorneys and we hope you have a good time over the next few days. Please find me or one of our attorneys with Levin Papantonio and introduce yourself – we are always looking to make good connections and would love to meet you.
