9.5 Million Dollar Verdict in Take Home Mesothelioma Case

Today a  Baltimore jury returned a verdict of  $9,985,000  against ATTRANSCO on behalf of  LeRoy J. Conway, Jr. and his wife, Yolanda.    Leroy's  father worked for ATTRANSCO beginning in the early 1960s through the 1970s as a merchant mariner in the engine rooms of ships with steam equipment and exposed his son to asbestos when he came home from work. Leroy's claim was for his exposure in the 1970's.  Leory was diagnosed with pleural mesothelioma when he was 44 years-old and underwent the removal of his lung shortly thereafter. Congratulations to my friends and co counsel Scott Frost, Demetrios Zacharapoulos, and George Tankard of Waters & Kraus on their well deserved victory.
