Law Firm Overview

Thornton & Naumes LLP is an experienced law firm specializing in mesothelioma and asbestos litigation. We started the firm in 1978 doing groundbreaking legal work for the victims of mesothelioma and asbestos-related diseases. 30 years later, we continue to work against these devastating afflictions.

Because a long period of time can elapse between exposure and illness, it can take up to 30, 40, or 50 years for asbestos exposure symptoms to show up in diagnostic tests. We have constantly been able to adapt to changes in the asbestos litigation field throughout this time so we can best serve our clients.

Our dedicated mesothelioma and asbestos partners Edwin Wallace, David McMorris and Andrew Wainwright work with associates Andrea Marino, Heather Engman, Bobby Naumes, Jr., Christian Uehlein, and Zoran Malesevic to fully leverage our history and long experience as an asbestos law firm. Because we have represented thousands of victims of asbestos exposure, we have a detailed and far-reaching network of information at our disposal. This information and experience is unique to Thornton & Naumes and can be put to work for you. We have created a legal organization that branches out into every facet of your needs. We can answer your questions. We can help.

Our location in Boston has also allowed us to become closely associated with America's leading asbestos-related medical professionals. We are proud to work with the International Mesothelioma Program at Brigham & Women's Hospital and have been fortunate enough to support the Thornton & Naumes Mesothelioma House, a home-away-from-home for the families of mesothelioma victims receiving treatment in the Boston area.
