MIAMI, April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The jury spoke loud and clear when it
awarded $24,170,000 to Plaintiff Stephen Guilder and his family on Friday
evening in a Miami-Dade courtroom. Dr. Guilder, a 50 year old Weston area
ortolaryngologist, was diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma on September 26,
2007. Mesothelioma is a rare cancer caused by asbestos. Dr. Guilder and his
wife Sheila have been married for more than twenty years. They have three
children, Ariel (18), Alex (16), and Ross (14).

David A. Jagolinzer of The Ferraro Law Firm in Miami tried the case
against Honeywell International, Inc., formerly Bendix, and argued that Dr.
Guilder's exposure to Honeywell's asbestos brakes in the 1970's and early
1980's caused his terminal cancer. "I am very pleased that the jury held
Honeywell accountable for the devastating harms it caused Dr. Guilder and his
family," said partner David A. Jagolinzer.

The trial took two weeks and resulted in the largest compensatory jury
verdict in Florida for a victim of asbestos exposure against a single
defendant.
