The Opioid Epidemic
Listen
Attorney & law professor Jeffrey B. Simon recently won an historic $1.8 billion settlement against Johnson & Johnson and other pharmaceutical giants that will go towards opioid harm reduction in the state of Texas. He will share how they are spending this settlement money and how this model should be replicated across America in order to fund intensive harm reduction programs to combat the ongoing opioid epidemic. Standing between large corporations and the harm their self-interested policies do to American consumers, Simon is also focused on protecting consumer rights and giving a greater voice to the importance of this struggle. He has been recognized as a Texas Super Lawyer in Texas Monthly Magazine every year for over fifteen years, and in 2020, was recognized as a Texas Trailblazer by Texas Lawyer. Simon also hosts the popular Outside Counsel podcast series.
