Leaders in Litigation in Florida: Trial and Appellate Lawyers Fighting for Your Rights

The Florida trial and appellate attorneys at The Ferraro Law Firm are here to fight for the rights of personal injury victims and their loved ones. Since 1985, we have aggressively and successfully handled a broad range of personal injury cases, including those involving asbestos exposure and mesothelioma.

The Ferraro Law Firm has a nationwide reputation for handling asbestos, mesothelioma, and environmental toxic tort lawsuits. We represent clients in every state, either directly or through our nationwide network of attorneys.

 

Making Legal History-Again.

The Ferraro Law Firm is a firm that makes history. Our team has recovered billions of dollars for clients, with numerous multi-million dollar jury verdicts. In a highly publicized case that received national media attention, Jim Ferraro was the first to effectively prosecute a major chemical company for a product that caused birth defects. He was included in the national top 10 finalists for Trial Lawyer of The Year in 1997 as a result.

Other historic accomplishments include:

1995

Mr. Ferraro obtained the largest ever mesothelioma-related compensatory award in Florida in 1995, totaling $6.25 million.

1997

Mr. Ferraro successfully obtained a nationally record-breaking jury verdict in a non-malignant asbestos case of $5 million.

2002

The firm was instrumental in persuading the Delaware Supreme Court to change a law that shielded big companies from being sued more than two years after their products caused injuries.

2008

Our attorney David Jagolinzer broke the record for Florida’s largest compensatory asbestos award, at $24.17 million.

2014

David broke the record again with a $37 million jury verdict on behalf of a 65-year-old automobile mechanic with peritoneal mesothelioma.

Free Case Assessment

Personal injury case evaluations at The Ferraro Law Firm are always free. We operate on a contingency fee basis, which means that your lawsuit will cost you nothing unless we make a recovery for you. Then, after deducting the expenses we incurred in handling your case, we take a percentage of the recovery as our fee. For family law cases such as divorce, we charge an hourly fee.

We truly respect each of our clients and it is our privilege to fight for them and their families in their time of need.
