Hi New York friends, I'm headed your way in the morning for two awesome events about The Pain Brokers. I hope you can join us for one or both! Tomorrow kicks off with an awesome panel of scholars @howarderichson.bsky.social, @gilatjbachar.bsky.social, Myriam Gilles, & Tony Sebok at Cardozo Law.

My latest with the @ucdavislaw.bsky.social Review argues that plaintiffs’ lawyers can refuse harmful NDAs by defining the scope of representation at the outset and reclaiming their role as both advocates and stewards of justice. Check it out: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... @templelaw.bsky.social

Thanks for the shout out, @templelaw.bsky.social !

Great to see @gilatjbachar.bsky.social’s excellent work highlighted.

Thank you @lsolum.bsky.social for recommending my new piece, Coercive Settlements, recently published with the George Washington Law Review! @templelaw.bsky.social

Huge thanks to Professor Chris Robinette for his kind and insightful @jotwell.bsky.social review of my article, Just Tort Settlements, recently out with the @arizonastateuni.bsky.social law journal! Link to review and article in comments.

Can civil settlements be coercive? My new piece in the GW Law Review explores how power, pressure & silence deals can undermine true consent. Feedback welcome! Read more here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... @templelaw.bsky.social

Alongside criminal consequences, we should be spending more time thinking about the culture of silence in the face of repeated wrongdoing. I've written about this here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... Full article from the Atlantic: www.theatlantic.com/culture/arch...

Professor @gilatjbachar.bsky.social blends her passion for writing and social change to explore the psychology of civil disputes. Her research challenges traditional notions of confidentiality in settlements, advocating transparency when public interest is at stake. law.temple.edu/news/a-novel...

Reprint day for Just Tort Settlements, which explores litigants’ settlement decision-making with an eye toward confidentiality. Many thanks to the fantastic editors at @arizonastateuni.bsky.social law journal! Check it out: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Nice to see my latest, Just Tort Settlements - recently out with @arizonastateuni.bsky.social Law Journal - made @ssrn.bsky.social top papers list for negotiation and dispute resolution. Check it out: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

This is really cool.

New article alert: A deep dive into how plaintiffs' attitudes shape civil settlements when NDAs are involved. A survey of 500 Americans reveals that confidentiality, repeat wrongdoing, and settlement goals (monetary vs. accountability) all play key roles. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Fun to get the reprints of "Informed Bystanders' Duty to Warn"! Thanks again to the Minnesota Law Review editors for their fantastic work. The paper is available here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Come chat about lawyers’ disclosure duties/ say hello if you’re at AALS!

Excited to see my new paper, Informed Bystanders’ Duty to Warn, just published with the Minnesota Law Review, on @ssrn.bsky.social’s Top Papers List! The paper considers when bystanders should warn victims about prospective harm. Check it out: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

I spoke to Brian Mann at @npr.org about the implications of the Ohio Supreme Court’s decision to limit nuisance lawsuits against opioid companies. www.npr.org/2024/12/11/n...
