Two of HeplerBroom’s asbestos litigation attorneys will play key roles at HarrisMartin’s annual Midwest Asbestos Litigation Conference, which will be held September 8 at the Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis. Brenda Baum is in her 16^th year of co-chairing the event. Speakers at the event include Eric Hall, who will provide updates on the Madison County (Illinois) asbestos docket. Other speakers at the conference include judges as well as experienced defense and plaintiff attorneys whose legal practices concentrate on asbestos litigation.

Baum and Hall are both partners with HeplerBroom and focus their practices on asbestos litigation, products and premises liability, and toxic tort matters. They have each been named to the lists of Best Lawyers in America, Illinois Super Lawyers, and Illinois Leading Lawyers. In addition, Baum is rated an AV Preeminent Attorney by Martindale-Hubbell. In 2022, Hall had the distinction of being named Best Lawyers’ St. Louis Lawyer of the Year in Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions for Defendants.
