He has appeared in the following bankruptcies and has represented the interests of children diagnoses with neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) due to fetal opioid exposure: Insys Therapeutics, Purdue Pharma LP Bankruptcy, Mallinckrodt, Endo Pharmaceutical, and Rite Aid Corporation.

Don Creadore takes pride in holding pharmaceutical companies accountable for misconduct and for lack of transparency and candor with consumers about their products that are being marketed and prescribed to them.
