Those Working for National and Regional Passenger Rail/Mass Transit Carriers Are At Risk for Asbestos Disease. Get More Information from Our Lawyers.

Each year, millions of Americans travel by national and regional rail carriers for both work and leisure travel. The men and women working for these companies work hard to ensure passenger safety. Unfortunately, these rail employees are at risk for asbestos disease because of asbestos-containing products still used in train cars.

Asbestos is still used, even on new high speed trains, in the brake and clutch components, causing employees, particularly mechanics, to be exposed to the dangerous carcinogen.

Asbestos exposure is known to cause serious diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer or asbestosis.

The asbestos lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg have helped countless asbestos patients and families to seek compensation from the companies responsible for their illness. Contact us today for a free review of your case, and we will contact you as soon as possible.
