The Case That Took On Ford Motor Company. A National Audience Watched.
Vicki Gilliam served as lead attorney in Mann v. Ford — an HBO Documentary Films production that followed a five-year class action lawsuit on behalf of the Ramapough Mountain Indians against Ford Motor Company for decades of toxic waste dumping in their community. The film aired nationally, introduced Vicki to a national audience, and drew comparisons to Erin Brockovich. It is the clearest example of what drives this firm: giving a voice to people who need one, and taking on opponents no matter how powerful.

My little brother was in a fix. He was being blackmailed or accused of wrong doing. Vicky proved herself professional, knowledgeable and a credit to herself, her firm and the local, state and federal justice system. Thank you Vicky and “carry on the struggle “.
