Are you a US Navy Veteran with mesothelioma? We can help you file a claim for financial compensation.

Many people are unaware that US Navy ships used asbestos, which causes mesothelioma cancer and other lung diseases, as insulation and in other products.

In particular, it was used liberally around pipes and boilers from the 1930s to the mid-1970s.

Navy veterans frequently had exposure to asbestos from jobs or removal operations, for example, ripouts.

Many naval ships still have asbestos as it was often used to make gaskets, brakes, clutches.

Many World War II veterans, including ex-Navy and ship personnel, were exposed to asbestos dust and fibers from frayed materials, insulation or overheads.

Additionally, the US Navy used asbestos products in ship construction, repair and overhaul at naval shipyards.

Many who served in the US Navy 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.
