Gregory Andrews Cade
Processing Toxic Claims Since 1990
Attorney Gregory A. Cade specializes in Environmental Law and Asbestos Occupational Exposure, with a remarkable professional experience of over 25 years. He has successfully recovered millions of dollars for asbestos cancer victims struggling with lung cancer, asbestosis, mesothelioma, gallbladder cancer, kidney cancer, esophageal cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, colon cancer, and pulmonary fibrosis.
Gregory A. Cade is also the chairman of Environmental Litigation Group, P.C., which he joined in 1993 as an investigator and litigation paralegal. He is also a member of numerous renowned groups and associations, including the ABA and the National Registry of Environmental Professionals.
Cade pursued a master’s program in Occupational Health, Safety, and Industrial Hygiene on top of obtaining his J.D. degree from Miles School of Law in 2001. He worked closely with toxicologists, epidemiologists, and other scientists at the UCLA School of Public Health, contributing to a thorough understanding of how environmental pollutants affect human health.
His interest in the legal system and his passion for science motivated him to become an attorney. Although asbestos cases are highly complex, demanding, and time-consuming, Cade considers his career to be gratifying; he aids asbestos exposure victims and families in recovering the financial compensation they deserve.
Attorney Cade represented many Alabama workers and families exposed to asbestos-containing materials (ACM) at their workplaces or homes through secondary exposure from a family relative working with asbestos.

- Q. Landlord refuses to repair or address anything including *High* levels of Toxic mold found growing in his home.
