Do they have nurses on staff? Have they had extensive experience in their career? How many years have they been in practice? And what do others in the community think of them? I interview more than one law firm, and I find who I feel comfortable with. It shouldn't just be 'oh who can I go to? will they take my case?', it's 'who am I comfortable with as a consumer?'.

Who is diagnosed with asbestos exposure or mesothelioma?

People who wind up diagnosed with asbestos are the people we look back on who really fought and made our country great.

Why doesn't the FDA remove harmful drugs from the market?

On all these matters that we are talking about, whether we are talking about fen-phen or gadolinium or any of these pharmaceuticals that are having problems in the market, the difficulty is that the FDA has a tremendous amount of staff and goes through tremendous process to decide whether something should be allowed on the market. The difficulty is that once its on the market, the FDA does not have enough staff to monitor if there are events to see if these medications should be pulled off the market. The pharmaceuticals have such power with the FDA that the consumer does really not have a fair chance. Thus, the FDA is not a real watchdog we can rely on right now. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove.
