For more than a century, American workers have been suffering and dying needlessly due to asbestos exposure. This tragedy is even more sinister in light of one simple, indisputable fact: Companies and their insurers knew the dangers of asbestos. Yet, for decades, they chose to conceal this information from workers and their families. In fact, asbestos is still legal in the United States.
Because symptoms of asbestos exposure can take as long as 10-50 years to appear, many people who worked at these exposure sites are just now being diagnosed with mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases.
If you have developed mesothelioma, lung cancer or another asbestos-related disease, it is important to contact an attorney to explore your legal options. You shouldn't have to suffer physically or financially because of negligence. Significant compensation may be available for those affected by asbestos.
For over 40 years, Sokolove Law has helped thousands of families nationwide receive settlements and recovered over $4.5 billion for victims of mesothelioma and their loved ones — including many right here in Utah. As a national law firm, with an office and licensed attorney in almost every state, our national reach allows us to help families across the country and maximize the value of their cases and potential settlements.
Where You Could Have Been Exposed To Asbestos
For many years, asbestos was used extensively in construction, manufacturing and many trades as well as all branches of the U.S. military. Certain jobs come with a higher risk of exposure to asbestos. Construction workers, car mechanics and pipe fitters are just a few of the many types of workers who may have unknowingly been exposed to this deadly mineral all over Utah and across the United States.
Some examples of Utah asbestos exposure jobs sites are:
- American Linen Supply Company, Salt Lake City
- Amalgamated Sugar Company, Odgen
