Neil C. Ludman

Of Counsel
Neil C. Ludman has extensive experience in the areas of litigation management and product liability litigation. He has been active in the national management of mass torts, as well as the defense of individual actions in several Western states and federal courts.

Pro Bono Activities

In 2008, Mr. Ludman helped to win asylum for a Guatemalan woman seeking to escape brutal violence in Central America. The matter was referred to him by the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area (LCCR).

Mr. Ludman successfully represented a charitable service organization when its former Web site was copied and used to promote products that were fiercely offensive to the client. He was able to shut down the site and have the domain name transferred back to the charity.

Previous Experience

Ludman joined the firm from the products liability group of Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison. In addition, he has been the Director of Management and Legal Information Systems at Heller Ehrman White & McAuliffe.

Mr. Ludman has run a database consulting company, and created case management systems used to coordinate many national litigation efforts and negotiated technical, service and systems development contracts on behalf of clients.
