About Mark Steven Meland

James L. Ferraro is an experienced and accomplished Florida mesothelioma lawyer with a long list of accolades and case wins. Ferraro has fashioned his law practice with a focus on cases involving personal injury, product liability, wrongful death, environmental toxic torts, and mesothelioma and asbestos cases.

For over 20 years, he has focused his career on asbestos / mass tort litigation, achieving major results in injury cases, including jury verdicts totaling multi-millions of dollars. Mr Ferraro obtained the highest compensatory recovery in a Florida mesothelioma lawsuit in 1995. He also achieved a nationally record-breaking compensatory jury award for a benign asbestos case in 1997.

He was among just 10 finalists from around the country considered for 1997 Trial Lawyer of the Year after being the first to successfully prosecute a case against a major chemical giant whose products led to birth defects. In a nationally televised and recognized case, Mr Ferraro held chemical giant DuPont responsible after a woman's baby was born missing eyes after she was exposed to a dangerous fungicide during her pregnancy.

The Supreme Court of Florida re-affirmed this verdict seven years later. Mr Ferraro later wrote a book about this case called Blindsided. This book chronicles his experience taking on the industrial giants in a real-life David and Goliath fashion.
