Services for Veterans in North Dakota Exposed to Asbestos

Veterans of the armed forces, particularly those in the Navy or served on military ships, were exposed to asbestos during their military carreer.  Veterans living in North Dakota should be aware of the dangers of lung diseases that are caused by exposure to this dangerous carcinogen.  Mesothelioma and other diseases associated with asbestos sometimes take some time to affect people, often 15 to 30 years or more after preliminary exposure.

As a result of the dormant nature of these conditions, you should have a physician screen you regularly. In addition, because asbestos-related diseases are progressive, when you have trouble breathing and you have had potential exposure to asbestos, it is recommended that you immediately see a doctor. Exposure to asbestos is known to cause serious diseases such as mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer and asbestosis.

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 caused by asbestos exposure may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
