Michael T. Pulaski
Since 1972, Michael Pulaski has been involved in the trial of major products liability lawsuits on behalf of manufacturers. The majority of this litigation has been in the automotive and recreational equipment fields, and he is frequently retained on a statewide and national basis. He has successfully defended product manufacturers in refinery and oil well explosion cases. He has served as national trial counsel for Ford Motor Company. He is also engaged in an environmental practice. In this capacity, he has been involved in numerous class actions alleging toxic tort exposures and has assisted in promulgating national and state environmental regulations. Mr. Pulaski has an impeccable reputation for handling cases fairly. His ability to disarm highly charged conflicts and build trust with clients make him a natural at resolving disputes.
