ASBESTOS

Our qualified Illinois toxic tort lawyers (link to Attorney Biography page) have significant experience defending a wide variety of manufacturers and users of asbestos-containing products, against asbestos personal injury and property damage lawsuits. Cheely, O’Flaherty & Ayres (link to Firm Overview page) has participated in formulating and drafting most of the case management orders under which the asbestos litigation has been administered in Cook County since the mid 1980s. This includes the innovative Cook County “Pleural Registry," which has prevented this jurisdiction from becoming a dumping ground for large numbers of minimal-impairment cases. We have taken the leading role in coordinating successful defense efforts to oppose treatment of asbestos cases in Cook County on a mass trial or class basis. Put our extensive experience to work for you by contacting Cheely, O’Flaherty & Ayres (link to Contact Us page), in Chicago, Illinois today.

MOLD

At Cheely, O’Flaherty & Ayres (link to Firm Overview page) our attorneys have worked in the rapidly growing area of mold related litigation. Virtually every building contains some sort of mold, especially where there are leakage or water infiltration problems. While some individuals develop health problems relating to certain mold spores like black mold, there are currently no government standards dictating how much mold is too much. We represent building owners, developers, landlords, tenants, contractors and other individuals and entities in dealing with legal issues arising from these mold related issues as well as their unique insurance coverage implications.
