We may be able to help you claim compensation if:-
- If you are suffering from an Asbestos related disease
- You are a relative of someone who has died as a result of being exposed to asbestos
Exposure to asbestos can cause:-
- Pleural plaques
- Pleural fibrosis and thickening
- Asbestosis
- Lung cancer
- Mesothelioma.
Since the 1970's there have been strict regulations to regulate the use of asbestos, and it is possible to make claims relating to exposure dating back many years.
A claim can be started:-
- Within three years of being informed of the condition by an appropriately qualified doctor
- Within three years of death
- The time limit starts at the diagnosis of the victim's condition, rather than when the asbestos exposure happened,
Dealing with asbestos related disease claims is a very specialist area of law. It involves complicated medical issues, in addition to the need to identify former employers, their insurers and trace any witnesses.
