Our Mesothelioma and Asbestos claims expertise
Asbestos diseases are caused by inhaling asbestos dust a mineral
commonly used in the construction industry until the 1970s.. The
main diseases caused by asbestos
inhalation are:
- mesothelioma
- asbestosis
- lung cancer
- pleural plaques
People who have been exposed to asbestos include builders,
plumbers and shipyard workers, but teachers, children and nurses
are believed to have been put at risk since asbestos was used in
the construction of several schools and hospitals.
Families of those who work with asbestos can also be infected if
asbestos particles are brought into the home on clothes. It can
take more than 40 years for symptoms to show.
We have one of the country's leading mesothelioma and
asbestos claims practices and we pursue claims on behalf
of those who have developed asbestos-related diseases.
Our mesothelioma and asbestos team act on a 'no win, no fee' basis. We do not expect you to
travel to our offices - we can visit you at home.
We have successfully concluded over 2,150 asbestos
compensation claims, recovering over £155 million damages on behalf
of sufferers and their families, throughout the UK and abroad.
If you have developed any of these conditions and believe
that you have been exposed to asbestos contact one of our
specialist lawyers for information and legal advice.
