Biography
Steve Baron has a gift for negotiating with people and getting things done. In addition to overseeing all of the law firm’s asbestos litigation teams, Steve is a strong negotiator whose efforts have helped provide compensation to thousands of asbestos victims. Steve also serves on advisory and claimants committees for various asbestos bankruptcy trusts to protect the rights of asbestos victims.
Steve’s passion for his clients and the good he can do for them is what drives him every day, and his strong business sense and experience are the tools he uses to help change lives. “I’ve very aware that we can’t take away the damage these companies have done,” Steve says, “but we can call on these corporations to pay for what they have done and, maybe, ease some of the financial strain of dealing with a devastating illness or the loss of a family member.” And that’s just what Steve does every day.
Steve’s personal life is equally busy as a husband and father of two daughters who are growing up to be as independent and determined as Steve himself.
