Exposed to asbestos at their workplace
As an insulator, you used to work in one of the most dangerous environments regarding asbestos exposure. Insulators worked directly with asbestos-containing products and risked inhaling asbestos fibers when wrapping materials were applied and by doing that the particles of this toxic mineral could have been disturbed, or when worn down and damaged, insulation required removal.
Claim EvaluationThe second process was more dangerous due to the friable state the asbestos was found in, crumbling easier when the insulator touched the aged materials and continued to breathe in the asbestos dust-filled atmosphere.
The people that were unknowingly working in the dangerous environments that insulation projects entailed have fallen numerous times in the hands of diseases like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis, diseases that are diagnosed in later years when their health can't be restored.
People exposed through spouse, husband, parent, relative.

Until the late 1970s, nearly all types of insulation produced in the U.S. contained asbestos, from block and pipe insulation to attic insulation. To properly install it, insulators had to cut and stretch the product to fit over the equipment which needed to be fireproofed. Asbestos tape or adhesive would subsequently be applied over insulation to ensure its position. Nevertheless, attic insulation implied an even greater danger due to its friable nature.
If you or a loved one worked as an insulator, let us help by giving you the legal assistance necessary in obtaining the compensation you deserve for being exposed to asbestos fibers. We will file claims with the asbestos trust funds of the companies that put your lives in danger and also with the VA, if you worked as an insulator in the military.
