Jianlin Song

Jianlin Song, M.D., J.D., began her professional life as a physician in Beijing, China, which provided her with a solid background and extensive knowledge to represent companies and individual practitioners in the life sciences and health care industries after she changed her career path from medicine to law. During her 15-year legal career, Dr. Song has defended manufacturers of a very broad spectrum of life science products, from food supplements and dental adhesives to prescription drugs and medical devices. She also has represented clinical and diagnostic laboratories and dental, medical and nursing practitioners in professional malpractice cases, and in response to investigations by their respective professional boards. Among her many successes, Dr. Song defended a manufacturer of a 3D-printed joint prosthesis, obtaining a no liability judgment, which yielded the first published opinion in product liability law involving a 3D-printed medical device in the state of California.
