Our client trusted their word for decades, then was told the painting wasn’t authentic.

Aaron Heckaman has filed a lawsuit against Sotheby’s on behalf of a prominent Houston art collector over a painting he purchased through the auction house more than two decades ago.

According to the lawsuit, our client purchased Tulips, represented as an authentic work by artist Kees van Dongen, during a Sotheby’s Impressionist and Modern Art auction. Our client alleges that, more than 20 years later, Sotheby’s informed him that the artwork was not authentic.

The lawsuit asserts claims including breach of contract, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation, and unjust enrichment.

B*H is ready to represent our client as he seeks accountability and damages through the legal process.

Her husband spent four years working in the boiler room of ships, stripping pipes without being warned about the asbestos around him or the dangers of breathing in its fibers. Decades later, he was diagnosed with mesothelioma.

Even as he faced the disease, his thoughts were with his family. While no financial recovery could ever replace him, he found comfort in knowing they would have support after he was gone.

That is where Bailey Cowan Heckaman came in.

His wife remembers feeling like they were more than just a case. Even after his passing, the B*H team continued to check in and see how she was doing.

For us, that relationship matters. We fight for accountability, but we never lose sight of the people and families at the heart of every case.

Mesothelioma can take decades to develop, but its cause often traces back to asbestos exposure years earlier.

This rare and aggressive cancer affects the protective lining around the lungs, abdomen, heart, or te**es. Symptoms may not appear until 20–50 years after exposure, making awareness of your exposure history especially important.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, taking action early can help protect both your health and your legal rights.

At Bailey Cowan Heckaman, we have decades of experience advocating for individuals and families affected by mesothelioma. We are here to help you understand your options and pursue the justice you deserve.

Asbestos exposure isn’t always obvious. In some older homes and buildings, it may be hiding right beneath your feet.

Certain vinyl tiles, sheet flooring, and flooring adhesives manufactured decades ago may contain asbestos. When these materials are damaged, removed, sanded, or disturbed during renovations, asbestos fibers can become airborne and potentially put workers, homeowners, and families at risk.

Knowing where asbestos may be found is an important step toward preventing exposure.

Under the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), schools are not required to remove all asbestos if the material is in good condition and can be safely managed.

Instead, schools must inspect asbestos-containing materials, maintain a detailed management plan, conduct surveillance every 6 months, and perform accredited reinspections at least every 3 years.

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma after asbestos exposure, understanding where and how that exposure occurred is an important step. B*H is committed to helping victims and their families pursue the answers and justice they deserve.
