HOME ASBESTOS DRUGS POLLUTANTS ACCIDENTS MALPRACTICE STORY OF OUR FIRM SEARCH

Building trade workers have a right to seek lawsuit monies for mesothelioma cancer.

Our asbestos lawyers have helped thousands recover compensation for asbestos lung diseases.

People in the building trade still risk mesothelioma and other asbestos-related illnesses because they don't understand the dangers of asbestos and how to avoid exposure.

Asbestos deaths are still occurring among building trade workers such as carpenters and plumbers but many younger tradesmen think it's a thing of the past.

In fact, asbestos is still in many old buildings, so the risk of drilling or cutting into it is still there.

It's thought asbestos-related diseases kill thousands of people a year, most of them in the building trade.

For this reason, it is vital that all building and construction trade workers know exactly how to deal with asbestos and not put themselves at risk.

Asbestos can hurt your lungs and many uses for it have been banned.

But this mineral is still used in construction, mainly in roof panels and packing gaskets.

And construction workers in the building trade still are exposed to asbestos during remodeling and demolition: Asbestos is often in old fireproofing, roofing, vinyl flooring, pipe and boiler insulation, and some roads and cement pipe and cement sheet products.

Thousands of building trade workers in the United States have died from diseases caused by work with — or near — asbestos without protection.

And 10,000 people are expected to die each year for the next 10 years because of past exposures to asbestos, according to Construction and Occupational Safety and Health officials.

Many in the building trade have come forward to say their work environment led to a diagnosis of mesothelioma, asbestosis or lung cancer from asbestos.

If this has been your experience, we may be able to help.
