On the following pages, you will learn more about the legal services Baron & Budd provides. For 30 years, the cornerstone of our practice has been to seek justice for people whose health has been harmed by exposure to toxic substances. Since the firm’s inception, we have represented people across the country with mesothelioma and other diseases caused by exposure to asbestos, and through the years we have represented people and communities injured by a host of other toxic substances, including benzene, dioxin, arsenic, lead, and mercury, among others. Additionally, we have represented people harmed by unsafe drugs and medical devices. We also represent hundreds of municipalities and water providers seeking clean-up costs for the contamination of community water supplies.
In recent years, Baron & Budd has expanded our practice to serve individual and institutional investors hurt by security fraud; governments seeking taxes owed them by on-line travel companies; and consumers in class action suits. We also represent plaintiffs in commercial litigation matters.
