In recent years our personal injury solicitors** in Bristol have noticed an increase in the number of people whose health has been destroyed due to asbestos and related mesothelioma. If you have been affected by this form of industrial illness, it can be difficult to know where to turn.
Asbestos is a substance frequently used in insulation and building materials. It is no longer used due to the fact that it is now known to be a carcinogen, known to cause cancer, or mesotheliomas, in the lungs or colon. The disease generally takes several decades to become apparent, so those who have been recently diagnosed are likely to have come into asbestos earlier on in their lives. It tends to affect those who worked in the building or construction trade. Many of our clients express a real sadness that a career they enjoyed in and took pride in for so many years has actually made them ill.
Asbestos Related Injury Claims
If you or a loved on have contracted an asbestos-related condition such as asbestosis or mesothelioma, it can pay to get in touch with one of our friendly Bristol lawyers, who specialise in dealing with cases involving asbestos. If you were unknowingly exposed to asbestos you may well be able to bring a court case against the company that manufactured the asbestos. Sadly, it has come to light that many of these companies who were making these dangerous products were actually fully aware of the health risks they posed, yet continued to do so anyway. We don’t believe this is right and we are committed to making them take responsibility for the effects of this negligence.
Being diagnosed with a health condition is always an upsetting and stressful time. With asbestosis and mesothelioma the distress can be heightened because you know that your illness could have been easily preventable. Many of our clients feel a lot of anger towards the companies that produces asbestos and want to make them accountable. You may also be worried about your financial future, but rest assured our team of specialist local lawyers in Bristol can help you in your fight to get the compensation you deserve.
