Williamsport trial lawyer and judicial leader Clifford Rieders talks about US Supreme Court balance, ‘packing the court’ and why all justices can’t agree on what is constitutional on On The Mark Podcast with host Mark Lawrence and co-host Ben Reichley.
Federal Court Hands Rieders, Travis, Humphrey, Waters & Dohrmann Client a Victory
U.S. District Judge Michael Baylson of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on January 16 ruled that strict liability claims filed by our clients, Crystal and Timothy Gross, in the case of Gross v. Coloplast, could continue. The couple, represented by Clifford A. Rieders, filed their legal claims due to injuries suffered by Mrs. Gross because of the defendant’s defective pelvic mesh. The judge denied the company’s motion to dismiss, which was based on a prior Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling that medications couldn’t be subject to strict liability claims. The company tried to extend that decision to medical devices. Strict liability is a legal theory stating that those putting dangerous, defective products that injure people into the marketplace should be financially responsible for that harm.
Attorney Corey J. Mowrey Partnership Announcement
We are pleased to announce that Attorney Corey J. Mowrey has been named a partner at Rieders, Travis, Humphrey, Waters & Dohrmann. Corey is an experienced attorney who has served at the firm as an intern, associate, and senior associate. His practice areas include personal injury litigation, motor vehicle accidents, medical/hospital malpractice, slip and fall, commercial law, unemployment compensation and civil litigation. We are excited to welcome Corey as the firm’s newest partner, and we look forward to his continued commitment to providing our clients with quality legal representation.
The Internal Revenue Service Can Help to Prevent Terrorism
By Leonard Getz and Clifford A. Rieders
While universities may plead powerless to stopping the spread of educational corruption and terrorist ideology in their Saudi and Iranian funded Middle East studies programs, the Internal Revenue Service cannot. Universities must adhere to a series of IRS codes and criteria for determining whether an educational institution is educational or a vehicle for propaganda. If the IRS applied these codes and procedures as they should, many universities would have their tax exempt status revoked.
We hear a lot about “due process” these days. President Trump tweeted the question as to whether accused male sexual offenders are entitled to “due process.” So what exactly are Trump and others who trumpet the phrase talking about?
The Legal Intelligencer, the leading legal publication in Pennsylvania, on March 1, 2018, published an article entitled “Pa. Superior Court Adds to Debate Over Jury Instructions in Wake of ‘Tincher’.” Cliff Rieders has been instrumental in this debate.

Cliff Rieders Talks Predispute Arbitration Clauses and Implications for Consumers
Hear Clifford Rieders discuss Predispute Arbitration Clauses at the Philadelphia Bar Association in May of 2017. Cliff Rieders has been a key figure in the drafting of legislation that would protect consumers from unfair arbitration agreements.
These clauses have become widespread in a variety of consumer contracts, including those relating to healthcare facilities, credit cards, cell phones and real estate, to name just a few. In the discussion, Cliff Rieders talks about:
- The role arbitration clauses have traditionally played in our courts
- The constitutionality of arbitration agreements

Can You Get Punitive Damages in a Car Accident Case?
In short, you can recover punitive damages in a Pennsylvania car crash case. However, you need to prove that the defendant's actions were a product of deliberate indifference to the consequences or intentional. If the court agrees with you, then you have to take additional steps in order to obtain punitive damages. However, in some cases, it is worth the hassle to go after punitive damages.
