Courtroom Victories
We received a jury verdict in May 2007 of $37 million for two smokers with lung cancer who had been exposed to asbestos. The defendant was Robert A. Keasbey Company, a former insulation contractor and distributor of asbestos products. The jury determined that the occupational exposures to asbestos of both men were "substantial factors" in causing their lung cancers and rejected the defense that the sole cause of their lung cancers was smoking.
