Did workplace exposure cause your parenchymal asbestosis? Contact us if your exposure occurred in New York State.

A person can develop parenchymal asbestosis and other lung diseases from exposure to asbestos.

Parenchymal asbestosis is a chronic lung disease caused by scarring or thickening of lung tissue because of inhaled asbestos.

This disease can develop with workplace asbestos exposure.

The lung scarring from asbestos exposures can disrupt the flow of oxygen into the lungs and make it hard to breathe.

Symptoms of parenchymal asbestosis typically include:

breathlessness that gets increasingly worse,

cough, and

chest tightness or pain.

Many laborers have come forward to say their work environment led to a diagnosis of mesothelioma, parenchymal asbestosis or lung cancer from asbestos.

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