Damion Young is a member of the Products Liability Practice Group in the Firm’s Orange County office. Mr. Young’s practice focuses on defending companies in catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. He has extensive experience litigating high-exposure cases involving alleged defective products, asbestos and toxic substances, motor vehicle collisions, large-scale wildland fires, construction defects, e-commerce, and consumer class actions.

As part of his products liability practice, Mr. Young takes an active interest in defending technology and software companies against a variety of legal claims arising out of the use of internet-connected consumer “smart” (IOT) products and applications. Internet-capable devices present a unique set of challenges due to the multitude of legal theories that can be asserted against the designers, manufacturers, and sellers of those products. Such challenges include lawsuits arising out of direct and indirect personal injuries, privacy intrusions, and lack of cyber-security.

Prior to becoming an attorney, Mr. Young served as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Specialist in the United States Army, where he was responsible for executing vital missions in support of various federal and state law enforcement agencies, including U.S. Secret Service Presidential Protection (TSD). He credits his military training for his attention to detail, strong technical background, and ability to stay calm under pressure.
