Professor @gilatjbachar.bsky.social blends her passion for writing and social change to explore the psychology of civil disputes. Her research challenges traditional notions of confidentiality in settlements, advocating transparency when public interest is at stake.

I spoke to Brian Mann at @npr.org about the implications of the Ohio Supreme Court’s decision to limit nuisance lawsuits against opioid companies. www.npr.org/2024/12/11/n...
An opioid settlement ruling could have far-reaching implications for other lawsuits
Ohio's state supreme court has struck down one of the central legal arguments used against corporations accused of fueling America's opioid crisis. The ruling could have far-reaching implications.
