Eran S. Forster
Partner
Eran Forster is a partner in the Messner Reeves Nevada office. His practice areas include personal injury defense in transportation related cases (automobile, trucking, and aviation), premises liability, product liability, insurance coverage, employment, and contract-based litigation. His focus is on complex, high-exposure actions that involve catastrophic injuries and fatalities.
Mr. Forster also has extensive experience in multi-jurisdictional and federal litigation. His practice often includes unique procedural issues regarding choice of law, venue and jurisdiction. Mr. Forster’s federal experience includes removal actions (diversity and federal question) and litigation involving Title VII, Family Medical Leave Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act, the Truth and Lending Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and state law claims under supplemental and diversity jurisdiction.
Prior to law school, Mr. Forster clerked for the United States Attorney’s Office District of Nevada where he conducted numerous parole revocation hearings, misdemeanor plea negotiations, and drafted appellate briefs. In addition, Mr. Forster clerked for the California Public Employment Relations Board. While there, he was responsible for investigating Unfair Practice Charges and determining whether a complaint or dismissal should be issued based on his evaluation of whether the claimant could make a prima facie showing that a collective bargaining violation occurred.
