That background makes him uniquely qualified to prosecute your railroad cancer claim. Andrew has litigated and tried cases against the country’s top toxic tort and FELA attorneys. He frequently prosecutes cases against railroads that are represented by three separate law firms, all working full bore. To that end, Andrew often partners with co-counsel who have particular skills and experience. Railroad cancer lawsuits are labor-intensive and expensive to prosecute. There is plenty of work to go around. On certain matters, it only makes sense for you to have more than one firm prosecuting your case.
In addition to your legal team, it is vital that your lawyers hire the right experts to connect your workplace exposures to your illness. The experts often make the difference between a case being dismissed – or proceeding to trial. Andrew will work with proven experts in occupational medicine, oncology, toxicology and industrial hygiene to support your railroad cancer claim.
