    The National Law Journal interviewed Partner Michael P. Canty on how plaintiffs firms are adapting as COVID-19 variants lead to slowdowns for civil proceedings.

    As some U.S. courts are grappling with the omicron-driven spike in COVID-19 infections, as previously reported by The National Law Journal, plaintiffs firms are once again facing court delays, especially when it comes to jury trials.

    That may also mean that firms are a bit more selective with which cases to pursue. “So you have to adapt and try to bring the right cases. One thing we’ve always prioritized at Labaton is that we look for real fraud on the market where we can get real value on behalf of our clients,” Canty said.
