Other Occupational Diseases

Occupational Disease Lawyer

Many of our clients have developed occupational diseases which drastically affect their quality and quantity of life as a result of simply going to work each day and doing their job as they were instructed. The damaging effects of toxic, carcinogenic, and dangerous occupational exposures to minerals and chemicals in the workplace can take months, years, or even decades, to be fully revealed.

 

Dangerous Exposures

  • Asbestos – Lung cancer, mesothelioma, & other cancers.
  • Benlate
  • Benzene – Leukemia, breathing problems
  • Creosote
  • Diesel Exhaust
  • Dioxins
  • Lead – Neurological imparment, developmental delays
  • Silica
  • Vinyl Chloride
  • Welding Rods – Parkinson’s disease

Occupational Disease Lawsuit

Every occupational disease lawsuit is different. Our occupational injury lawyers have experience with both the immediate nature of a back injury case involving a fall as result of a defective bolt manufacturing process as well as an asbestos exposure case where an insulator suffered his exposure two and a half decades ago.

A common thread in both types of cases is the statutes of limitations. These statutes affect the period of time during which an injured person can bring forth a suit. The statute of limitations for injury like a fall may start running from the time of injury while an asbestos case’s statute of limitations often starts from the date of diagnosis. Statutes depend upon the details of the case and vary from state to state; we have lawyers licensed to practice in many states and offices in three. One of our occupational lawyers can help you understand the time limits that may affect your case; contact us today.
