Choosing a Mesothelioma Attorney


Choosing a mesothelioma attorney to represent you in your lawsuit is a very personal decision. You should feel good about the people at the law firm that you deal with and be satisfied with any answers to your questions before you hire an attorney.

We invite you to consider Baron & Budd, P.C. We believe that you will be impressed by our experience, track record, reputation in the legal community, and the caring, friendly attention you will receive from our attorneys and staff.

When deciding to hire an attorney for any kind of legal service, you should feel confident that they have the experience and knowledge to represent you well. You might ask the following questions of attorneys who would represent you in an asbestos case:

How long has your firm been handling this type of case?
How many mesothelioma cases do you handle currently?
How many mesothelioma cases have you handled?
Will your law firm actually work on my case or will you refer my case to another law firm? If you are likely to refer my case elsewhere, what is the name of the law firm(s) that you might send my case to?
How many cases like mine has your law firm actually taken to trial? What kind of verdicts have you obtained in such cases? Are these verdicts your law firm personally obtained? If another law firm obtained these results, what is the name of that firm?
If you take a case to trial, will an attorney from your law firm actually be responsible for representing me at trial, or will you hire an attorney from outside your firm to handle the trial?
In the event an appeal is necessary in my case, do you have lawyers at your firm who dedicate much of their time to appellate and legal issues work? What is your law firm’s track record for successfully handling appeals?
As one of the oldest and largest law firms of its kind in the country, Baron & Budd, P.C. has a lot of experience in representing victims of diseases caused by asbestos and other toxic substances. Your case will be assigned to a team of Baron & Budd attorneys and staff who will be responsible for your case from your initial contact with the firm to its completion. If, after an evaluation of your case, we feel your case would be better served if filed in a state where we do not practice or usually file cases, we might recommend a law firm in that state with experience in asbestos cases.

Also, because we are prepared to take any client’s meritorious case to trial, have lawyers who devote their practice to trial work, and have won several major trial victories, we believe that we are in a position to obtain an optimal outcome for our clients. Even if you prefer to settle out of court, a strong trial record helps a law firm negotiate a good recovery for its clients. Don’t be afraid to ask a potential law firm interested in your case about their trial record.

Baron & Budd has an appellate legal team with attorneys who devote their time to appeals, legal research, and briefing legal issues. The strength of our appellate team is reflected in our appellate legal victories.
