Kristen Gibbons Feden, nationally acclaimed litigator, speaker, and MSNBC legal analyst is bringing her formidable skills to Anapol Weiss, Philadelphia's preeminent personal injury and mass torts litigation firm.
PHILADELPHIA, March 13, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Kristen Gibbons Feden, one of America's most fierce and famous trial attorneys, has joined Philadelphia's Anapol Weiss to lead its sexual abuse and civil rights litigation practices. In 2018, Feden was hailed by The New York Times as "The Prosecutor Who Stared Down Bill Cosby." In 2023, Feden earned national recognition for winning two eight-figure verdicts in the same day – a $10.5M verdict for victims of rapper R. Kelly and a $22M verdict for the sexual abuse victim of a renowned pediatrician in New York.
"Kristen's talents in the courtroom are incomparable," said Anapol Weiss shareholder Kila Baldwin, "She has the powerful combination of compassion and killer instinct, which makes her a dream come true for her clients, and a nightmare for the other side."
Prior to joining Anapol Weiss, Feden sharpened her legendary skills through both private practice and as a prosecutor. After graduating from Temple University's Beasley School of Law, Feden served in the Montgomery County District Attorney's office for five years, where she was a member of the Sex Crimes Unit and then led the Elder Abuse Unit and the Domestic Violence Unit.
Feden was one of the lead attorneys in the prosecution of Bill Cosby for sexual abuse. Feden delivered the closing argument in Commonwealth v. Bill Cosby, which earned her international headlines. As a leading #MeToo advocate, Feden told The New York Times that her passion in the courtroom comes naturally, "I'm a very loud person and I don't like seeing people get picked on."
"We are thrilled Krissy is joining our family of exceptional trial lawyers at Anapol Weiss," said Managing Shareholder, Thomas Anapol. "Her community leadership, tenacity, and dedication to her clients and their causes will be a welcome addition to our growing depth and firepower at the firm."
"I am honored to be working alongside the exceptional team at Anapol Weiss, who share my unwavering commitment to fighting for survivors and holding abusers accountable," said Feden. "Together, we will work tirelessly to pursue justice, support the vulnerable, and be a voice for those who have suffered unspeakable harm."
Feden's arrival as a shareholder marks a significant moment for Anapol Weiss, as now half of its shareholders and all of its partners are female attorneys.
"As female trial attorneys, we can understand and empathize with our female clients in ways we can convey in powerful, meaningful terms to juries," explained shareholder Kila Baldwin. "It is why we are increasingly becoming the go-to firm in this region for women who have been victims of personal injury cases. We are here for them, and we will fight for them."
