Hawaii's Top Lawyers: Personal Injury Litigation

February 1997

Sherry Broder is probably most famous for the heptachlor milk contamination case of the 1980s, and for the still ongoing case against the Ferdinand Marcos regime brought by the 10,000 Philippine victims of torture. Most of her work is smaller scale, however—auto accidents and product defects. The reason she chose personal injury litigation as her kuleana? "I thought I could help people and be able to fight for justice." She also does work for the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, and continues to represent the Dana Ireland family, even after settlement of the 911 civil case. "I got civil justice for them, but they haven't gotten their criminal justice yet. So I cannot give up. I'm with them all the way."
