Our law firm is dedicated to recovering financial compensation for people who have developed mesothelioma and other asbestos-related illnesses. Many of those who seek us out do not have the resources for treatment but are able to obtain that, along with some measure of monetary security for themselves and their families, by engaging our legal team to fight for justice.
We have been around since 1986, building up our practice by taking to task negligent and indifferent employers, manufacturers of asbestos and other individuals who cast aside concern for the public’s safety in favor of monetary gain.
Below are just a few recent examples of our courtroom wins complete with impressive multimillion-dollar verdicts:
$37 million asbestos verdict in two lung cancer cases in a reverse bifurcated trial
$25 million jury verdict in a trial against DaimlerChrysler AG for a New York City brake reliner who lost his right lung to mesothelioma
$53 million verdict for a brake mechanic suffering from mesothelioma

It includes articles on how asbestos exposure takes place, how other people with an asbestos illness live their lives, books and other resources that can help you, and things you need to do to take care of yourself or loved one. Please take the time to browse these pages. Knowledge can be a great source of empowerment.
Mesothelioma & Asbestosis Mortalities Across the US: 1979-2001 (c/o EWG)
“We have seen first-hand how asbestos has wreaked havoc on Americans working in naval shipyards, automobile plants, and the construction industry. Most often this is through their employers’ conscious choice for profits over a worker's health.”
-- Joseph Patrick Williams, a trial attorney in the Asbestos Litigation department of Weitz & Luxenberg
