During her tenure at Foley Hoag, Lynch became the first woman to head the firm's litigation practice, and was among the team of lawyers representing defendant W.R. Grace & Co. in the Woburn, Massachusetts, toxic tort trial (the subject of Jonathan Harr's 1995 book A Civil Action.) Lynch remained in private practice until being appointed to the First Circuit.
Skinner is noted for his role in the groundwater contamination case out of Woburn, Massachusetts, which became the basis for the book A Civil Action by Jonathan Harr, which received the National Book Critics Circle Award for NonFiction, and the subsequent film of the same name starring John Travolta (in which Skinner was portrayed by John Lithgow).
