Making a Claim for Asbestosis / Mesothelioma

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with an asbestos related disease you may be entitled to make a claim for asbestosis compensation or mesothelioma compensation.

Our specialist solicitors are experts in industrial disease claims for asbestosis, mesothelioma and other asbestos related diseases.

Some of the work environments in which people came into contact with asbestos are:

• Shipyards
• Boiler & engine rooms
• Asbestos plants
• Heating & air conditioning
• Industrial & chemical plants
• Schools
• Railway industry
• Electrical industry
• Chemical laboratories
• Building and construction

The list is by no means exhaustive. After the war, asbestos was widely used in the construction of public buildings (including schools and hospitals) and in the railways industry.  

You do not have to have worked directly with asbestos or have had constant exposure. Many people who have had indirect contact (for example through washing their spouse's work clothes or where the dust has been bought into the family home on clothes, shoes etc.)) may have a compensation claim, therefore it is crucial to speak to an experienced asbestos solicitor to discuss your circumstances and your illness. Even a single fibre of asbestos can lodge in the lung and be fatal.   

What is Mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos. This asbestos-related malignancy is recognised as a medical condition for which legal compensation claims can be made. Mesothelioma generally develops many years after exposure to asbestos and many victims could have forgotten parts of their working life where they could have been exposed to asbestos which has caused the Mesothelioma.
