Courts of Madison County
In the early 2000s, the courts of Madison County, Illinois, were widely regarded as some of the most plaintiff-friendly in the nation. Between 2001 and 2002, for instance, more than 1,400 asbestos cases settled in Madison County courts, prompted primarily by defendants' concern that Madison juries would award lucrative verdicts for plaintiffs. In recent years, however, the courts of Madison County, influenced by calls for tort reform, have issued verdicts which increasingly penalize plaintiffs and protect defendants.
If you are suffering from asbestos exposure and its effects-mesothelioma, asbestosis or lung cancer-you need the advice of not only attorneys who understand your medical needs and legal rights, but also how best to fight for you. Your lawyer should know which courts are most likely-and most unlikely-to provide you with the justice you deserve. He should recognize that the disposition of courts, like the courts of Madison County, can change.
