Representative Cases

Brett led two urgent, deeply personal cases for former medical professionals with mesothelioma. Through meticulous investigation and swift legal action, he secured meaningful settlements in months.

In another case, Brett represents a maritime worker exposed to asbestos aboard tugboats in the 1990s, long after asbestos was assumed to be phased out. His detailed investigation uncovered ongoing risks from residual asbestos insulation, showcasing his ability to build strong claims in evolving exposure scenarios.

Brett also secured a $5.37 million settlement for a tour manager who developed mesothelioma after unknowingly working with asbestos-containing materials while touring with major artists. His thorough investigation traced the client’s nontraditional exposure sources and built a strong case before trial.
