Auto Mechanics with Mesothelioma Have a Right to Seek Compensation. Please Complete the Form Below to Contact our Legal Team

Many brakes and clutches used in new and recent model automobiles do not contain asbestos. However, it has not been totally eliminated. Auto mechanics should be aware of the risk of mesothelioma and other asbestos illnesses.

Some reports have indicated that many mechanics and employees in the automotive repair shops as well as do-it-yourselfers are unaware that asbestos may be present in both old and replacement brakes and clutches.

Although the use of asbestos in friction products is declining annually, it remains a substantial source of potential exposure.

In addition, there is still potential exposure to asbestos contained in automotive brakes and clutches on older vehicles in need of service.

Exposure to asbestos, if not properly controlled can cause mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.

Symptoms may not appear for years, even decades, after contact with asbestos fibers.
