Jayne Conroy is a named partner at Simmons Hanly Conroy and leads the Complex Litigation Department. Under her guidance, the firm has grown into one of the largest plaintiff law firms in the U.S., dedicated to representing those harmed by corporate misconduct.
With over three decades of legal experience, Jayne has established herself as a top-tier trial lawyer, strategic thinker, and skilled negotiator. She has consistently secured billions in verdicts and settlements for thousands of individuals, families, and communities in courtrooms across the nation.
“We are a threat to defendants because we are everywhere,” Jayne remarked, noting the depth of expertise within her department. “They know they have to deal with us, and we are ready to take cases to trial.”
Jayne’s practice is dedicated exclusively to plaintiffs in mass torts, class actions, product liability, pharmaceutical, and sexual abuse cases. She has been appointed to numerous court leadership roles in complex national litigations, including multidistrict litigation (MDLs) that consolidate thousands of cases from state courts under a single federal judge.
Jayne’s recent MDL appointments include the Plaintiff’s Executive Committee for the In re: Insulin Pricing Litigation, which claims pharmaceutical companies inflated insulin prices, and the In re: Camp Lejeune Water Litigation, which alleges that toxic chemicals in drinking water caused severe health conditions, including cancer and birth defects.
She also serves on the leadership team for the In re: Social Media Adolescent Addiction/Personal Injury Products Liability Litigation, which addresses claims that social media platforms foster addictive behaviors in adolescents. Additionally, she is on the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee for the In re McKinsey & Co Inc National Prescription Opiate Consultant Litigation, which accuses McKinsey of driving opioid addiction through harmful marketing strategies.
