Suing Those Responsible for Your Asbestos Exposure: Our Lawyers Can Help

The Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization is suing CBS Corporation, a toy maker and several retailers over the sale of a toy based on a CBS series, according to Reuters on April 13, 2008.

The ADAO said laboratory tests showed that the toy, a crime-scene kit based on the series “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,” contained asbestos in a powder used to dust for fingerprints.

According to Reuters, the manufacturer of the kits removed them from the market last year.

Asbestos is a known carcinogen that has been linked to numerous devastating health problems, including asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma.
