Belluck & Fox Partner Joseph W. Belluck will co-chair Mealey's National Asbestos SuperConference in Scottsdale, Arizona. The three day superconference, which will be held between September 26 and September 28, features in-depth sessions covering all aspects of asbestos litigation. The format brings together diverse topics that have not previously been offered within a single conference framework. Some of the topics to be covered include, but are not limited to, the current state of medical treatment for asbestos disease, the changing claimant profiles, and the ethical issues involved with asbestos litigation.

Mr. Belluck's co-chairmanship of the conference reflects the high esteem with which he is held by other members of the asbestos litigation community. His practice is focused on consumer, environmental and defective product litigation, especially litigation related to asbestos exposure and mesothelioma. He and his partner Jordan Fox have crafted Belluck & Fox into one of the nation's premier asbestos and mesothelioma litigation firms and have recovered over $100 million in compensation for their clients. Prior to his partnership at Belluck and Fox, Mr. Belluck served as counsel to the New York State Attorney General during the State of New York's litigation against the tobacco industry, where he was instrumental in settling New York State's tobacco lawsuit for $25 billion. Mr. Belluck also served as Director of Attorney Services for Trial Lawyers Care, an organization dedicated to providing free legal assistance to victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
