Individuals from West Virginia who worked with asbestos products on the job or who were exposed at other locations may qualify to file a lawsuit to receive compensation for their injuries. Having a discussion about your history with a mesothelioma lawyer who is experienced in handling asbestos cases is the first step to making sure that your legal rights are protected.

Workers who were employed at power plants and other asbestos jobsites in Charleston, Huntington Parkersburg and other cities and towns in West Virginia may have been exposed to products with asbestos. Veterans of the U.S. Navy or other branches of the armed services may have also been exposed onboard ships or from other materials.

Because it can take up to 50 years after exposure for the first symptoms of asbestos exposure to appear, it can be difficult to identify the asbestos-containing products to which you were exposed. The attorneys and staff at a law firm that is experienced in handling mesothelioma and asbestos cases can help you to determine which products you were exposed to and the parties who may have been responsible for your exposure.

If you or a loved one have received a mesothelioma diagnosis or for another asbestos disease, contact the law firm of Hissey Mulderig & Friend to find out more information about your rights.
