Weitz & Luxenberg is known for pioneering asbestos cases, having won a historic consolidated trial in 1991 in regards to employees of the Brooklyn Navy Yard in the 1940s and 1950s.

We have managed 36 clients in that case and received $75 million. Another case yielded a $64.65 million award for four asbestos plaintiffs in 1996 (NY, docket # 10893/95), and, in 2002, the firm won a $53 million verdict in New York for a brake mechanic stricken by mesothelioma (docket No. 12658-00). Weitz & Luxenberg has recovered hundreds of millions more for its clients, many of whom formed the basis of the successful Allied war effort in World War II.

Comprised of oxygen, hydrogen, silicon, and assorted metals, asbestos is classified as a mineral. Fibers made of asbestos are powerful, flexible and not flammable. Asbestos also insulates very well and does not break down easily. Other asbestos uses include older plastics, paper products and floor tiles. Often, asbestos fibers are combined with a material that joins them together, constructing an asbestos containing material, otherwise known as ACM. An assortment of industrial products are made of ACM, such as sealants, cement pipe and insulation.

Numerous Americans served in the armed forces and were exposed to asbestos for an extended amount of time unaware of the fact that this could one day result in the fatal disease: mesothelioma.
