Justice for Asbestos and Talc Exposure Victims
Our mission is simple: to deliver justice for individuals and families whose lives have been forever changed by asbestos. Our veteran trial lawyers have devoted their careers to obtaining justice for victims of mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases, achieving record verdicts and settlements across the country.
Focused. Experienced. Proven.
Asbestos-exposure litigation is unlike any other form of injury or product liability work. It demands the ability to uncover records buried deep in corporate archives, establish causation through sophisticated scientific analysis, and translate complex medical and technical information into clear, compelling stories for juries. These are skills that come only with years of focused experience, and they are the foundation of our firm’s success.
We keep our firm small by design, focusing on select cases so we can give each client the time, attention, and skill they deserve. When you hire us, you work directly with experienced trial lawyers–not layers of staff or junior attorneys. There’s no learning curve, no handoff, and no wasted time. We take pride in our ability to translate complex technical details into compelling stories that connect with juries—and in doing so, we’ve helped countless victims of mesothelioma secure life-changing results.
You will never feel like you are just a case to us.
Our Contingent Fee Model
Iola, Gross & Forbes-King operates entirely on a contingent fee basis, meaning our clients pay nothing unless we win. This model allows everyday people to stand toe-to-toe with powerful corporate legal teams responsible for their injuries.
We handle asbestos cases all over the country. Wherever the client is, we will meet with them, and wherever their case needs to be filed is where we end up going, whether that’s California or New York or anywhere in between.
Innovative and Relentless
Our team is known for uncovering new and often-overlooked sources of asbestos exposure through innovative trial strategies and a deep understanding of the medical and scientific issues involved in these complex cases. We combine deep industry knowledge with advanced technology to give our clients a decisive edge in the courtroom.
Experience has taught us what it takes to hold these companies accountable and ensure they pay compensation to the people they have harmed. We are familiar with their playbook, and our knowledge allows us to overcome their tactics and win you the compensation you deserve.
