Links Between Asbestos Screenings and the Baltimore Orioles
Asbestos litigation never fails to provide unique fact patterns. And it seems that old mass screenings never die. Those topics both percolate through a blog post about the curious fact that the team physician for the Baltimore Orioles also had a 1995 (and later) practice diagnosing "asbestosis" in union workers represented by an asbestos plaintiff’s lawyer, Peter Angelos. The Orioles, not coincidentally, are owned by Peter Angelos. So, defendants are scrutinizing the links and the medical judgments.
