Kresen has been asked to share his knowledge, strategies, and experiences with other lawyers from across the country concerning the representation of victims of subrogation claims.

Kresen will draw upon his experience as lead counsel in numerous successful class actions in state and federal courts, where he has obtained multi-million dollar verdicts at trial and many more in settlement. Kresen's cases have been covered in the L.A. Times, Smart Money, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and featured on Good Morning America. Kresen concentrates his practice in the areas of industrial accidents, insurance bad faith, class actions, and mass tort litigation. He is a member of the Bars of West Virginia and Pennsylvania, American Trial Lawyers Association, West Virginia Trial Lawyers Association, Trial Lawyers for Public Justice, and has served on the Board of Governors of the Southern Trial Lawyers Association since 1995. Kresen is a graduate of Penn State University and the California Western School of Law.

In addition to sharing his experience and knowledge concerning subrogation, Kresen will also update colleagues on the status of current Baycol litigation. Gold, Khourey & Turak recently filed a complaint in federal court on behalf of 147 victims of the drug Baycol.
