Our Company knowingly and willingly exposed its employees to asbestos? Is this ground for a lawsuit?
Written by admin on February 26, 2010 – 3:47 pm -I currently work for a construction company. My job is to unload a truck full of waste materials from the work of the prior day. I do this every morning. I just learned that the waste materials I have been throwing away and handling every day for 6 months are asbestos pipes. I then found out that not only the company knows about this but the city the project is being done for know about it as well. When I asked a question about it a supervisor said “it wont kill you”! Other employees have also come into contact with large amounts of it as well. Is this ground for a lawsuit? and if so how much compensation would you estimate it to be worth? Please only serious answers Thank you!

What are the chances of winning a mesothelioma lawsuit?
Written by admin on February 26, 2010 – 3:47 pm -My father-in-law was recently diagnosed with mesothelioma. He is a disabled vet on a limited income. The life expectancy is only 4-18 months. He and my mother-in-law have filed a lawsuit against the asbestos manufacturer. The concern is that they have very little money and without compensation we are afraid that my mother-in-law will lose their house when he passes. Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks for answering. The lawyer says that because he has the disease that we have a good case. Mesothelioma is caused almost exclusively by asbestos exposure.
We have filed the suit against the manufacturer because we believe that he was exposed while working in the boiler room while in the army and suing the army just isn’t an option.
The lawyer we have retained has been involved with thousands of these cases. He has given us examples of awards won by his law firm, but I want to know what the chances are of not winning.
