Cory Watson Expands Asbestos and Mesothelioma Law Practice

Birmingham, Alabama law firm Cory Watson Crowder & DeGaris  has expanded its practice of Asbestos and Mesothelioma litigation with the addition of two new attorneys whose work is  dedicated exclusively to asbestos cases. Attorneys Kristi McHale and Courtney Sach join an asbestos lawyer team headed by shareholders Leila H.Watson and Annesley H. DeGaris.

Kristi McHale has practiced law since 2000. A University of Alabama graduate, she received her J.D. from Mississippi College School of Law. Courtney Sach is a graduate of Cornell University and received her J.D. from St. Thomas University School of Law. Her law practice has been devoted exclusively to asbestos litigation for four years.

Alabama is seeing an increasing number of Mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis cases in large part because asbestos related diseases can have a long latency period. Many people being diagnosed with asbestos related diseases today were exposed to the material thirty or forty years ago.

The firm also has an extensive practice in individual personal injury and wrongful death cases covering motor vehicle collisions, railroad grade crossing accidents, defective motor vehicles and ATVs, toxic exposures, dangerous household products, roadway construction failures, workplace and construction site accidents, building and other structural failures, and insurance and consumer lending fraud.
