Were you diagnosed with asbestosis in New York?
We can help you file a case if your asbestosis was caused by a job in New York State.
New York power plants are responsible for generating power that is then transmitted through wires and cables across a service area.
For well over 100 years, asbestos was used to insulate power plants such as Con Ed, and to cover pieces of equipment such as pipes and furnaces.
In many cases, protective clothing worn by workers also contained asbestos, heightening the risk of exposure.
Additionally, those employees who did not directly come into contact with asbestos may have been exposed because so much asbestos was released in power plants.
Sadly, this situation is all too familiar to the attorneys in the Weitz & Luxenberg P.C. Asbestos Litigation unit.
We are a leading plaintiffs' law firm that has represented people affected by mesothelioma for over 20 years. Men and women diagnosed with asbestosis, mesothelioma or lung cancer caused by asbestos exposure or secondary exposure may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
