Significant Victories
Throughout almost 40 years of practice, Baron & Budd has achieved a number of significant victories for individuals and entities through individual lawsuits and class actions.
Our victories have taken the shape of large verdicts, confidential settlements and even United States Supreme Court decisions.
We have fought for the rights of the injured in areas as diverse as asbestos-related diseases, such as mesothelioma, financial fraud such as excessive bank overdrafts, water contamination, and harmful drugs.
In the process we have had significant victories against some of the largest global corporations:
- ExxonMobil
- BP/Amoco
- Halliburton
- Hercules, Inc.
- National Gypsum
- Kelly Moore
- Georgia-Pacific
- Bank of America
- KNAUF Plasterboard Tianjin (KPT)
The National Law Journal, an esteemed independent legal publication, said this about Baron & Budd in late 2011 after awarding us recognition as one of the nation’s top plaintiffs’ law firms:
“The Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Shoddy drywall. Bad actions by banks. This Dallas firm has established a reputation as an advocate in some of the hottest litigation going. It is especially well-regarded for its work on behalf of mesothelioma victims, for whom Baron & Budd has secured hundreds of millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts, including the largest asbestos win -$55 million. In the pending oil spill multidistrict litigation, it represents the state of Louisiana and has a seat on the plaintiffs’ executive committee.” – quoted from The National Law Journal (published by American Lawyer Media, 2011)
