Our Team

Steven represents individuals and families harmed by defective drugs, dangerous medical devices, toxic chemical exposures, and other defective products. Since TorHoerman Law opened in 2009, he has helped lead litigation involving Depo-Provera, NEC infant formula, AFFF firefighting foam, Camp Lejeune water contamination, Tylenol, 3M Combat Arms Earplugs, talcum powder, Paraquat, infant teething tablets, diacetyl (“popcorn lung”), and numerous other pharmaceutical and product liability matters.

Earlier in his career, Steven represented clients in nationally recognized litigations involving OxyContin, hormone replacement therapy, transvaginal mesh, Pradaxa, Xarelto, Invokana, Taxotere, Uloric, Zelnorm, SSRIs, faulty heart devices, and other dangerous drugs and medical devices. This broad experience across multiple generations of complex litigation has provided him with a unique perspective on developing legal strategies, managing large case inventories, and advocating for clients through every stage of litigation.

While in law school, Steven worked in the offices of the Saline County, Illinois State’s Attorney and the Vanderburgh County, Indiana Prosecutor, where he gained valuable courtroom experience. He ultimately chose to devote his career to representing injured individuals, believing he could make the greatest difference by standing up for people harmed by corporate misconduct.

In addition to representing clients, Steven is known within the firm for his analytical approach to complex litigation. He enjoys developing case strategy, mentoring attorneys and staff, improving litigation systems, and helping solve the legal and operational challenges that arise in nationwide mass tort practice.
