Were you exposed to asbestos during factory work? Our lawyers may be able to help.

A man who died from asbestos poisoning in the United Kingdom may have been exposed to the lethal material during his time working at a factory, reported the Neath Guardian on APril 24, 2008.

The man, who was 82, and died in a nursing home in July, succumbed to malignant mesothelioma, according to the Guardian article.

He reportedly spent most of his working life at a metal box factory.

A relative said that he worked frequently with boiler maintenance, and was likely exposed to asbestos during the radical overhauls he conducted of the boilers.

Sadly, this situation is all too familiar to the attorneys in the Weitz & Luxenberg P.C. Asbestos Litigation unit here in the United States.
