Across decades of practice, Michael Ciresi has shaped the legal landscape through his leadership in complex product liability, intellectual property, and business litigation. He has obtained nearly $12 billion in verdicts, awards, and settlements and helped lead such consequential cases as the Minnesota tobacco lawsuit, global product liability proceedings, and major commercial and intellectual property disputes.
