Securities litigation exposure for life sciences companies is on the rise with approximately 1 out of every 5 securities fraud class actions suits being brought against a life sciences company.

During this webinar, our attorneys took an in-depth look at the recent cases impacting this trend, the pitfalls many life sciences companies face in both product development and marketing, and how to mitigate the common legal issues in defending securities class actions.
