Marzloff, George Ernest

Greg has been licensed to practice law in North Carolina since 1982.  He graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Law with honors, where he received the Order of the Coif and served on the North Carolina Law Review.  Greg also attended undergraduate school at UNC, obtaining his Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature in 1979.  He was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa in 1978.

In the early 1980s, Greg's practice was initially devoted to workers' compensation claims, specializing in brown lung (byssinosis) cases before the North Carolina Industrial Commission.  Later in the 1980s, Greg began handling jury trials involving the victims of automobile accidents, as well as products liability claims against manufacturers of defective drugs and products including breast implants and the dietary supplement L-Tryptophan, leading to a multi-million dollar settlement of those claims in 1993.  From late 1997 through early 2001, he successfully litigated a large group of products liability claims on behalf of residents in North Carolina and many other states who sustained serious valvular heart disease and primary pulmonary hypertension after taking American Home Products's diet drug, fenfluramine ("fen-phen").  He continues to concentrate on pharmaceutical litigation, including such cases as the defective Sulzer hip implant and the defective diabetes drug Rezulin.  He is an active member of the Shelby American Automobile Club.
