Mesothelioma risk created from inaccurate asbestos assessment

It has been reported that the premature cessation of work by an asbestos abatement firm due to its inaccurate assessment of costs has created a risk for the development of mesothelioma for area residents.

The asbestos abatement firm had entered into a contract with the city for asbestos removal work at a city owned building. After having done some work, the asbestos abatement firm demanded fees over and above those agreed upon in the contract. As a result, the asbestos abatement work was stopped prior to completion. Incomplete asbestos abatement work creates the risk for mesothelioma because asbestos not yet removed can be dispersed in the environment by air circulation. People can then inhale the asbestos fibers and develop asbestos diseases like mesothelioma decades later.
