Canada Residents: Discuss your asbestos related cancer with a lawyer who understands asbestos law.
Health Canada has encouraged provincial health authorities to adopt stringent workplace exposure limits for asbestos. Please consult with an asbestos lawyer at our firm if you have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related cancer.
Our firm has been helping workers and their families since 1986 seek asbestos lawsuit compensation. We are now able to help clients in Canada seek justice for mesothelioma and lung cancer related to asbestos.
The exposure risks are greatest for workers in Canada in industries which produce and use asbestos, such as mining and milling.
During renovations and repairs to older buildings, construction workers, tradespeople and other building maintenance workers may be exposed to very high concentrations of asbestos fibers.
The environment and work methods of these occupations are more difficult to control than fixed workplaces.
Asbestos poses health risks when fibers are present in the air that people breathe.
When inhaled, asbestos fibers can cause asbestosis (a scarring of the lungs which makes breathing difficult), mesothelioma (a rare cancer of the lining of the chest or abdominal cavity) and lung cancer, and other types of cancers.
Smoking, combined with inhaled asbestos, greatly increases the risk of lung cancer.
Residents of Canada have a right to seek compensation for an asbestos
illness.
Many residents of Canada have come forward to say their work
environment led to a diagnosis of mesothelioma, asbestosis or lung cancer from asbestos products
made in the U.S.
If this has been your experience, our asbestos lawyers may be able to help you receive compensation for your health problems.
