Over the past 20 years, we have represented literally hundreds of men and women who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis.  This experience has been “bitter/sweet” for me.  The sweetness comes from meeting new people and working very hard to generate some measure of compensation for them and their families.  The bitterness comes from the sorrow that each family experiences when a loved one is diagnosed with a serious disease.  We, too, feel that sorrow.. Representing men and women who have been diagnosed with asbestos-related diseases has become my life’s work.  I am a witness to what these diseases can do to a person, and to their family.  My own father has been diagnosed with asbestosis.  He worked in an asbestos plant for more than 30 years.  Over the years, I have represented several of his co-workers.  These men were diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis.  Many of these men I had met when I was a child.. Making A Difference. Ours is a small practice.  We decided that we wanted to keep our case load small so that we can spend the time necessary to really know our clients, and really understand their concerns.  We know that the diagnosis of an asbestos-related disease brings with it a degree of uncertainty and anxiety.  We understand your fear, and we want to help.. My entire staff is on a first name basis with everyone we represent.  I had the opportunity to personally select each and every worker in our office, and you will find that excellence and compassion are the hall marks of their work.  They work hard, and care deeply.. As a lawyer with more than 20 years of experience in asbestos litigation, I will work on every aspect of your case, from the filing of the complaint to the entry of a final judgment.  I will work for you, and be with you, every step of the way.  Not only do we care about your case, we care about you.
