If I Don't Remember How I was Exposed To Asbestos, What Can I Do?
There are many people who suffer from asbestos-related
diseases but can not recall how or where they were exposed to
asbestos. In fact, even your doctor (unless they focus on
asbestos-related diseases) may not be entirely familiar with the
wide range of spectrum of asbestos exposures. This is expecially
true because asbestos diseases are latent -- it takes years for
the symptoms and injuries caused by asbestos to appear.
At Belluck & Fox, we devote a substantial amount of time to
reviewing your work and life history to identify possible
exposures to asbestos. In many instances, a person may not be
aware that certain products, such as floor tiles, brake linings,
cements and even hair dryers contained asbestos. In addition, we
are familiar with the use and presence of asbestos at many work
sites and factories, including powerhouses, shipyards, schools
and large buildings. We can find the witnesses and documents
that will help establish your exposure to asbestos.
Belluck & Fox spends hours researching and investigating each
asbetos case. We also use our substantial experience to help us
invesitgate how you were exposed to asbestos and the companies
responsible for your exposure. Our inventory of cases is limited
to clients with serious injuries and we devote significant time
and resources to each case.
