The Product Liability Committee brings together attorneys and professionals who focus on how product liability law evolves, such as alongside rapidly changing technology, offering a forum to learn, share insights, and connect with leaders in the field.

What This Committee Focuses On:
"The Product Liability Committee unites the foremost thought leaders in the field with seasoned in-house counsel to tackle the most pressing developments shaping our practice. From artificial intelligence and autonomous systems to smart products and social media platforms, the committee sits at the cutting edge of how product liability law evolves alongside rapidly changing technology, and its members are the ones driving that conversation. Critically, the committee does not simply react to legal developments as they emerge."

A conversation you won't want to miss.

DRI is proud to welcome Senator Joe Manchin as a featured keynote speaker at the 2026 Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., this October.

In a candid fireside chat with DRI President-Elect Jill Rice, Senator Manchin will explore the challenges of leadership in a divided era and discuss why civility, professionalism, and the rule of law remain essential to moving forward.

At a time when respectful dialogue can feel increasingly rare, this timely discussion will offer valuable insights for lawyers, business leaders, and professionals committed to finding common ground and leading with purpose.
