Foreign Legal Consultants

The economies of the United States and Canada are inherently linked. When our mass litigation has cross-border implications, RPWB attorneys are sometimes enlisted as foreign legal consultants. We are able to leverage our knowledge of the factual issues and American law to help local counsel.

RPWB attorneys currently are acting as foreign legal consultants assisting six Canadian provinces – British Columbia, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Manitoba, Prince Edward Island and Saskatchewan – in their pursuit to be reimbursed for public health spending on tobacco-related illnesses.
