Young woman dies of mesothelioma from exposure to asbestos in school. Please complete the form below if you were harmed by asbestos.

A woman who advocated for treatment for the deadly asbestos-related disease mesothelioma has died aged 28. It is believed she is the youngest sufferer of the disease in the country, and that she was exposed while in school.

It is believed she was exposed to asbestos at her school, and lawyers have placed a Freedom of Information request to try and determine whether asbestos may have been present in her classrooms.

Many school workers have died or are dying following the widespread use of asbestos in schools throughout the country in the latter part of the twentieth century.

Sadly, this situation is all too familiar to the mesothelioma attorneys at Weitz & Luxenberg P.C.  We are a leading plaintiffs' law firm that has represented people affected by mesothelioma for over 20 years.  Men and women diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer caused by asbestos exposure may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
