Alabama Mesothelioma
Many industries have routinely exposed their workers to asbestos, including manufacturing, mining, construction, demolition, and more. Unfortunately, exposure to the mineral can lead to mesothelioma, an aggressive and incurable form of cancer.
Because asbestos was used in virtually every industrial, commercial, and residential project in Alabama throughout the 20th century, the risk of exposure remains today. Not only do these structures still contain asbestos, but people who used to work with the mineral — even decades ago — can develop mesothelioma because of previous exposure.
Contracting the disease on account of someone else’s failure to keep you safe is unjust. If you were diagnosed with mesothelioma, contact the Alabama asbestos lawyers at Morgan & Morgan. For more than 30 years, we’ve been fighting for the rights of victims, recovering billions of dollars on behalf of our clients. While the price of pain is infinite, financial compensation can help ensure your family’s financial future is secure.
