Asbestos claims litigation has spawned an
unprecedented wave of bankruptcies that has dragged down every major
manufacturer, as well as debtors in dozens of industries where asbestos was
used in the past. With potentially hundreds of billions of dollars of
exposure, and new legislative "fixes" being debated in Congress, it's
hard to know how to evaluate the situation.
We can help. We've represented debtors,
financial creditors, and §524(g) "future claim" representatives, in
cases all across the country. We know asbestos.
