Mill Workers Have a Right to Seek Lawsuit Compensation for an Asbestos Cancer Diagnosis.

In recent news about the dangers of exposure to asbestos, a man with asbestos illness contacted our firm to tell us about his work in an asbestos mill.

He said he worked in an asbestos mill in Copperopolis, CA, Tuolumne County for several years.

In that time, he said he was never told to wear protective gear such as a proper face mask, which would help shield him from the deadly asbestos fibers and dust.

His work entailed climbing between the machines used to smash and grade asbestos containing rock.

"No rules were ever enforced," he said, when asked about the precautionary measures employers are required to enforce so that workers are protected from exposure to asbestos.

Many workers were exposed to asbestos for decades on a daily basis and were unaware of the lethal dangers.

People who are very ill with asbestos-related diseases such as mesothelioma, lung cancer or asbestosis are hardworking people just like you.

People who worked in industries such as motor vehicle production and repair, construction and the textiles industry.

These are people whose families have been robbed of financial security while companies that made, distributed and used asbestos, profited.
