Symptoms of asbestos-related illnesses might not show up until 50 years after exposure.

Other Types of Environmental & Contamination Claims We Handle
Unsafe handling of hazardous materials can cause lasting environmental damage and a variety of exposure-related claims.
Hazardous Waste & Mesothelioma
Hazardous waste claims stem from improper disposal or handling of dangerous materials, such as asbestos, toxic chemicals, or heavy metals. You may be eligible to bring a claim if exposure led to serious respiratory illness or cancer.
Oil Spill Claims
Oil spill claims involve contamination of land or water caused by the release of petroleum or related substances. You may have a claim if an oil spill damaged your property, harmed your health, or disrupted your livelihood.
Toxic Exposure & Illness
Toxic exposure claims arise when repeated contact with hazardous substances causes chronic illness or injury. These cases often involve workplace exposure or environmental contamination that develops over time.
Toxic Water Contamination
Toxic water contamination occurs when harmful chemicals or substances pollute drinking water sources, leading to serious health problems. You may have a claim if contaminated water caused illness or long-term exposure in your home or community.

Asbestos Exposure Claims FAQs
1. What is Asbestos?
According to the National Cancer Institute, asbestos is the name of a group of heat and corrosion-resistant fibres that are used in insulation and fireproofing materials, motor vehicle breaks, and wallboard materials.
2. How are People Exposed to Asbestos?
When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, they release tiny asbestos fibres into the air, where we breathe them in. When we breathe in asbestos fibres, they lodge in our lungs, creating inflammation, difficulty breathing, and even cancer.
3. Who Can File an Asbestos Exposure Claim?
Anyone diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis, or another asbestos-related disease may qualify to file a claim. Family members who have lost a loved one to asbestos exposure can also pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim.
4. How Do I Start a Mesothelioma Lawsuit?
The process begins by speaking with an experienced asbestos lawyer who can review your exposure history and medical records. They will help identify where and when the exposure occurred, determine who is responsible, and file your claim before the statute of limitations expires.
5. Can Family Members File a Claim After a Loved One’s Death?
Yes. Surviving spouses, children, or estates may be eligible to file a wrongful death lawsuit. This allows families to seek justice and compensation for medical costs, funeral expenses, and emotional loss.
