What If I Am Unsure Of My Asbestos Exposure
Last updated on October 15, 2023
Certain diseases, like mesothelioma and asbestosis are linked to past asbestos exposure. If you receive a diagnosis for one of these diseases or another type of cancer that could be linked such as lung cancer, there is no doubt you were exposed to asbestos.
As a client of Savinis, Kane, & Gallucci, L.L.C., you can focus on your health and family while we conduct the work of linking your disease to past asbestos exposure in order to build a strong claim for compensation on your behalf.
We Can Find Asbestos Exposure
One of the first things that many of our clients say to us is that they “never worked around asbestos.” Many are not aware of just how pervasive the use of this deadly mineral was in all types of industries.
Two of the most common examples of unknown exposure include:
- You could have been exposed at a summer job as a teenager before changing career paths as an adult
- You could be the victim of second-hand exposure from a parent, spouse or grandparent
Additionally, if you worked in jobs involving the railroad, cement, steel production or pipefitting, it is likely you were exposed to asbestos at some point.
Clients are often surprised to learn that after just a few minutes of questioning about work history our attorneys are able to determine where the asbestos exposure occurred. From there, we can quickly get to work building a strong case against the companies that are liable for your illness.
