Our Firm Recovers $47 Million for Boilermaker
Harmed by Asbestos Exposure

In one of its many asbestos victories, Weitz & Luxenberg recovered $47 million for a boilermaker who risked exposure to the carcinogen while working at a power plant.

The power plant did not warn the boilermaker of the dangers of asbestos dust exposure and, later in life, he developed mesothelioma.

This case is but one example of how the firm has successfully fought for the rights of boilermakers and other workers who were unknowingly exposed to asbestos.

Such financial awards help this boilermaker and others like him with asbestos illnesses receive medical care. They are also better able to support their families.

Important: Even if your job does not expose you to asbestos dust, you may still be at risk for developing an asbestos-related illness if you live with someone who works as a boilermaker. Learn more.

From shipfitters, pipefitters and demolition workers, to those toiling on railroads and in construction, Weitz & Luxenberg has many clients whose needless and entirely avoidable exposure to asbestos ultimately led to them developing asbestos-related diseases.

Weitz & Luxenberg is a leading plaintiffs' law firm that has represented people affected by mesothelioma for over 20 years.

Men and women diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer caused by asbestos exposure may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
