Reason Gofigure41 23:11, 20 March 2012 (UTC) This page appears to be extremely advertising or promotional in nature about a private mesothelioma law firm. It also contains material that is not sufficiently notably (i.e. individual lawsuit verdicts). Finally, it contains information regarding bankruptcies that should be on a page in the Category asbestos, not a page for an individual law firm. Might be some other problems as well. Compare this page with Baron and Budd. Maybe it can be cleaned up to be less promotional? Gofigure41 23:11, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete or move per User:Bearian/Standards. The founding partner is clearly notable, but the firm is not.  He was a groundbreaker, but the firm is run-of-the-mill. Bearian (talk) 17:46, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete or move and trim Bearian has it exactly right.  The attorney Steven Kazan appears to be notable; the cases are notable; the law firm is not notable.  If moved, all the junk about the firm should be trimmed, and it should be limited to a discussion of Kazan-the-person, discussing Kazan-the-law-firm only as it relates to Kazan-the-person.
