HOME ASBESTOS DRUGS POLLUTANTS ACCIDENTS MALPRACTICE STORY OF OUR FIRM SEARCH

Contractors: We can help you seek compensation for mesothelioma or lung cancer from asbestos.

In recent news about the dangers of exposure to asbestos, a number of incidents have been reported in recent months involving contractors who disturbed asbestos while carrying out refurbishment work. Health officials confirm that such exposure can lead to mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis, as well as other lung ailments.

Asbestos has claimed the lives of hundreds of thousands in the United States. Contractors and construction site owners need to understand the dangers that asbestos poses to the long-term health of those who are exposed to it.

These business entities have a legal obligation to have a survey carried out by a competent surveyor on properties before any work starts and then provide the results of that survey to companies carrying out the work.

The dangers of asbestos are equally present in other parts of the world. Exposure to asbestos is the biggest single cause of work-related deaths in Great Britain, with around 4,000 people a year dying from asbestos-related disease.

The governement there is warning that even today, asbestos presents a 'real and relevant' risk to plumbers, joiners, electricians and other maintenance workers.

Many contractors 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.
