Asbestos is the name given to a mineral fiber that occurs naturally in rock and soil. Because of its natural fibrous strength and resistance to high temperatures, asbestos became increasingly popular for its use in construction such as building insulation and flame-retardant materials. However, concerns over the health risks from exposure to asbestos have increased and, as a result, regulations have significantly reduced or outright banned its widespread use.
There is a broad scientific consensus agreeing on the dangers of exposure to asbestos, and many reputable agencies and organizations, including the WHO, CDC, and EPA, have issued warnings around the use of asbestos. While prolonged exposure is still possible in buildings and structures erected before regulations were put in place, the general public is mostly safe from the dangers of asbestos. However, there are many occupations where asbestos exposure can be abundant and persistent:
The consistent position of scientists and regulatory agencies is that any level of asbestos exposure carries health risks, and appropriate precautions and regulations are essential. If you believe you or a loved one have had any exposure to asbestos, it is recommended that you speak with a medical professional immediately.
Asbestos is the blanket term for a collection of six different types of fibrous minerals that occur naturally in the environment. Due to its rigid and resilient structure, asbestos was mined for use in a wide range of applications including building materials, friction products, and heat-resistant fabrics. It is because of this durability, coupled with the carcinogenic properties of asbestos, that concerns about its widespread use became apparent.
Since asbestos does not break down easily and its microscopic particles can easily travel through air, humans are incredibly susceptible to breathing in these toxic materials. When inhaled or ingested, asbestos fibers can become lodged in the lungs or other tissues of the body. Over time, these fibers may cause inflammation, scarring, and, in some cases, cancer or other serious health problems.
Following the revelation of the dangers of these materials, the use of asbestos has since been heavily regulated and in many cases prohibited from use. However, exposure to asbestos is still possible through structures built before the regulations were enacted or through working with the substance in approved applications.
Asbestos particles, when disturbed, can easily travel through the air and into your lungs. These durable particles then get lodged in the lungs and accumulate over time, which can lead to a spectrum of health complications. These conditions can lay dormant and can take decades to manifest:
Asbestos litigation is one of the longest-running mass tort undertakings in American history. Because of its perceived value and subsequent widespread use in a number of applications, there are thousands of companies implicated in perpetuating the negative health effects of asbestos in use of products. Some notable examples include:
You and your family may be owed compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and the suffering caused by cancer due to your exposure to asbestos. These lawsuits also serve to raise public awareness and push for stricter regulations on the use of harmful chemicals in products.
