Overview
Baron & Budd shareholder Steve Baron is an accomplished litigator known for his tenacity in pursuing justice for victims of corporate misconduct.
Baron leads one of the nations' most aggressive litigation teams, representing clients in cases with some of the largest verdicts and settlements for people with mesothelioma and asbestos diseases as well as those who have been harmed by unsafe pharmaceuticals.
Over the last decade, Baron has been the lead negotiator on many of the firm's mesothelioma settlements and has also been the clients' representative on all major bankruptcy creditor committees. He has represented the firm's clients in major bankruptcy negotiations with asbestos companies including W.R. Grace, Owens Corning, Pittsburgh Corning, Babcock and Wilcox Co., and Halliburton.
