As the nation&#8217;s epicenter of asbestos litigation, Madison County has added in new rules to (hopefully) streamline the process.\n\nThe changes are largely welcomed, though there is concern that more obligations should be placed on defendants. Discovery disputes between both sides often result in plaintiffs\u2019 attorneys having to continue cases or proceed to trial with less information than needed. There is a belief that stronger requirements for production and compliance by defendants would help address this issue. That said, the order does encourage mediation, which in turn promotes settlements. Overall, the majority of asbestos cases do settle.\n\nThat is not to say verdicts do not have their place. They do. Verdicts help clarify expectations and define the practical boundaries of litigation.\n\nAnother component of the updated order is the prioritization of living mesothelioma cases. This approach recognizes that living plaintiffs with shortened life expectancies attributable to asbestos exposure are often over the age of 70. These trial ready requirements require plaintiffs\u2019 firms, such as Napoli Shkolnik, to provide the court with a list of priority cases and submit pre trial reports demonstrating that a case is ready for trial.\n\nUltimately, the focus should remain on individual cases and their specific facts, ensuring that substance is not overshadowed by form.\n<div class=\"update-highlight\">\n\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><a style=\"color: #ffffff;\" href=\"http:\/\/madisonrecord.com\/stories\/511071533-napoli-attorney-reacts-to-updated-asbestos-standing-order-praises-new-structure-but-wants-defense-bar-to-share-in-new-burdens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lee el art\u00edculo completo<\/a>\u00a0| <a style=\"color: #ffffff;\" href=\"\/practice-areas\/mesothelioma-attorneys\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">M\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n sobre el mesotelioma<\/a><\/span>\n\n<\/div>\nLos abogados de Napoli Shkolnik est\u00e1n bien versados en las complejidades de la legislaci\u00f3n y los litigios relacionados con el mesotelioma.
