Hunton & Williams has launched a 3D Printing Team. The team focuses on emerging legal issues facing users, manufacturers and consumers of 3D printed products – which is also known as “additive manufacturing.”
“3D printing is a disruptive technology with far-reaching implications for manufacturers, retailers, consumers, intellectual property owners and others,” Maya M. Eckstein, leader of Hunton & Williams’ 3D printing team and head of the firm’s Intellectual Property practice group, said. “This soon-to-be-ubiquitous technology brings with it a host of intriguing new legal questions surrounding intellectual property, product liability, insurance, corporate, tax, and other areas.”
