Frequently Asked Questions
01.
Why should I hire Ferraro Law for my legal needs?
Ferraro Law has a long history of representing individuals, families, and government entities in complex litigation, recovering billions for clients in asbestos exposure, mesothelioma, catastrophic injury, product liability, and consumer protection cases. With deep knowledge of mass torts, personal injury, and commercial litigation, the firm takes an aggressive approach to justice. Clients trust Ferraro Law for its proven results, dedicated legal team, and commitment to holding powerful corporations accountable.
02.
What is mesothelioma, and how is it caused?
Mesothelioma is a rare cancer linked to inhaling or ingesting asbestos fibers. These fibers can embed in the lining of the lungs, abdomen, or heart, causing long-term damage that eventually leads to cancer. It is most often diagnosed in individuals with occupational exposure to asbestos.
03.
What should veterans know about filing a mesothelioma claim?
Veterans diagnosed with mesothelioma may be eligible for both VA benefits and legal compensation. Filing a claim often requires proof of asbestos exposure during military service and medical documentation of the diagnosis. Ferraro Law has a long history of representing veterans in asbestos cases, helping gather evidence, navigate VA processes, and pursue additional compensation from liable manufacturers or contractors so every available avenue for recovery is pursued.
04.
What is the difference between a catastrophic injury and a regular personal injury?
A catastrophic injury is typically permanent, life-altering, and results in long-term or lifelong medical needs. These injuries—such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, severe burns, or amputations—often prevent a person from returning to work or living independently. In contrast, a regular personal injury may be serious but allows for full or partial recovery over time. Catastrophic injuries usually involve greater financial, emotional, and physical impacts, making experienced legal representation especially important.
05.
How does environmental toxic exposure happen, and what are the common sources?
Environmental toxic exposure happens when harmful chemicals pollute the air, water, or soil, putting people’s health at risk. This can occur through AFFF exposure, benzene, groundwater contamination, the herbicide Roundup™, or breathing in silica dust that can cause silicosis. These hazards have been linked to serious illnesses and long-term environmental damage.
06.
What are PFAS chemicals, and why are they referred to as “forever chemicals”?
PFAS chemicals are often referred to as “forever chemicals” because they do not break down naturally and can remain in the environment and the human body for decades, building up over time and increasing the risk of harm. PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are man-made chemicals linked to serious diseases, including kidney and testicular cancer. They are found in products such as firefighting foam (AFFF), nonstick cookware, and water-resistant fabrics.
07.
What are your legal options when an everyday product causes serious harm?
If a product such as cosmetics containing talcum powder, an automobile defect that resulted in harm and costly repairs, or a medical device that failed is defective or unsafe, you may have grounds for a product liability claim. Ferraro Law investigates how and why the product failed, builds the evidence, and pursues compensation for medical costs, lost income, and other damages caused by the product.
08.
When does an injury become “catastrophic” under the law?
Catastrophic injuries cause permanent or long-term damage that disrupts daily life, limits independence, or prevents a person from working. These can include paralysis, brain trauma, amputations, or severe burns. Ferraro Law has a long track record of representing clients in complex, high-value catastrophic injury cases—pursuing the full compensation needed for lifelong care, lost income, and lasting impact.
09.
When does a contract breach or business dispute become a case for commercial litigation?
A contract breach or business dispute may require commercial litigation when the other party’s actions cause substantial financial loss, disrupt operations, or damage your business’s reputation. This can include serious breaches, fraud, or unfair competition. Litigation provides a way to enforce agreements, seek compensation, and safeguard your business interests.
10.
What is appellate law, and who handles appeals?
Appeals law focuses on reviewing trial court decisions to determine if legal errors affected the outcome. Appeals are handled by appellate attorneys, who analyze trial records, research legal arguments, and present cases before appellate courts. These cases do not involve new evidence but instead challenge how the law was applied.
11.
Can Ferraro Law handle my case if I live outside of Florida?
Absolutely. We represent clients nationwide. Our extensive experience in complex litigation and specialized claims means that we can effectively advocate for your rights, no matter where you live.
