Mesothelioma & Asbestos

The number of people diagnosed with asbestos caused diseases in the U.S. continues to increase. Experts believe 60,000 mesothelioma deaths will occur between 2010 and 2030.

Industrial Accidents

Work related injuries harm up to 14 million people annually, with harms including traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, amputations, burns, and electrocutions. Around 20,000 to 60,000 workers die each year from accidents, toxins, and violence at their jobs.

Product Defects

Millions of consumers and workers are injured each year because of defective products. Defects can occur when a product is designed poorly, when a product is manufactured in a manner that differs from the intended design, or when the product does not contain proper warnings or instructions. Defects can occur in automobiles, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, construction equipment, toys, and other goods.

Nursing Home Abuse

Between 1.5 and 2 million elderly reside in nursing home facilities, with studies revealing that 44% have suffered some form of abuse. Many believe the actual number of residents suffering abuse is much higher. Neglect and abuse may result in serious emotional, physical, and financial harm

Newman vs. Lorillard, and Hollingworth & Vose, Inc.

Newman vs. Lorillard, and Hollingsworth & Vose, Incorporated

Description of Case: Mr. Newman smoked a brand of cigarettes that had a filter that contained asbestos, and subsequently came down with an asbestos-related disease. Lorillard made Kent cigarettes. From 1952-56 Kent cigarettes contained the "Kent Micronetic Filter", an asbestos containing filter made by Hollingsworth & Vose.

This was a high profile case because it was only the second time a trial in the United States ended with a verdict against these tobacco companies for their asbestos containing filter.
