Chad practices law as an attorney with Baron & Budd's asbestos litigation section, representing individuals with mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. He concentrates his practice on the liability of employers and the owners of the premises where his clients were exposed to asbestos. He finds his work challenging and rewarding: "I particularly enjoy the intellectual challenge of understanding legal issues on the broadest general level, as well as mastering the individual details of each specific case," he says. "No two clients' cases are alike."
He also finds satisfaction as an advocate for Baron & Budd's clients, who are typically working men and women whose injuries were caused by the actions of large corporate interests. "Baron & Budd has never taken a case against a poor man," he remarks.
In addition to serving Baron & Budd's clients, Chad puts his legal skills to use for the benefit of the community by providing his service, pro bono, to low-income individuals seeking assistance with divorces and income tax issues. He has also consulted with a local professional rehabilitation association on the possibility of acquiring non-profit status. He is also keenly interested in legal issues involving white-collar crime, unions and organized labor, and employment law.
