NO "SECRET" DEALS - Roberts
& Roberts fights secret settlements or deals
which allow information about unsafe products to go
unreported. A few years ago, Randy
Roberts and his firm were recognized in the national
media for uncovering and sharing with other consumer
lawyers the documents that helped lead to the recall
of the Firestone Wilderness and ATX lines of tires.
According to Randy, Consumer lawyers who fail to share
safety information with the public are no better than
the corporations trying to hide that information."
It's not unusual for Randy Robert to fly to places like Chicago, Cheyenne, or Tucson to fight confidentiality orders,which are used by corporations to keep information about unsafe products from the public. In a recent case, the firm knew that it was a common tactic for a major manufacturer to use settlement negotiations as leverage for keeping highly incriminating documents secret. Before appearing for the settlement conference, Roberts & Roberts shared the documents with consumer lawyers around the country to ensure that the information would never be kept secret. Randy calls this his "poison pill" defense against coerced secrecy agreements.
