In Memoriam: Texas Plaintiffs Lawyer Fred Baron

Posted on Friday 31 October 2008

Dallas plaintiffs lawyer Fred Baron died Thursday after battling multiple myeloma, a blood cancer. He was 61. Baron was known for his representation of plaintiffs in asbestos litigation and his involvement with the Democratic Party in Texas. In recent weeks, news of Baron's illness surfaced after his son, Andrew Baron, posted a letter online that Andrew had sent to the CEO of Biogen Idec Inc., seeking an experimental cancer drug treatment that he argued could have saved his father's life.
