Mesothelioma and Asbestos Cancers

From the 1940s to the early 1980s, asbestos was used in hundreds of products for its high heat insulation. Millions of industrial workers in steel mills, chemical plants, power plants and the construction trades inhaled asbestos dust and fibers. Years later, thousands have developed deadly cancers:

• Pleural mesothelioma (cancer of the lining around the lungs)
• Peritoneal mesothelioma (cancer of the chest cavity or stomach lining)
• Asbestos-related lung cancer

Corporate Liability for Asbestos Disease

When the serious health impacts of asbestos became known, many employers and manufacturers covered it up, failing to warn workers or take steps to protect them. Only after the first successful lawsuits in the 1970s did the industry change. But the damage was done.

Trial lawyer Brian Prim has extensive experience in mesothelioma litigation. He spent 11 years running the West Virginia office of a large law firm that specialized in wrongful death and personal injury asbestos cases. He has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of clients and their surviving families in complex cases involving dozens of plaintiffs and numerous defendants.

Whose Asbestos? We Have the Data to Make the Link

It's not disputed that mesothelioma and certain lung cancers are directly linked to asbestos. The problem in recovering damages is proving the source of exposure — our typical client worked at many different industrial plants. Prim Law Firm PLLC has built a massive database of asbestos-containing products and job sites where they were used. By comparing work histories and co-worker illnesses, we can trace asbestos exposures to specific manufacturers and the employers they supplied.

Helping Clients Get Treatment for Mesothelioma/Asbestos Cancer

Many victims have not even reached normal retirement age, and life expectancy is about 18 months. Prim Law Firm PLLC works with family members to connect clients to leading oncologists and promising new therapies that may extend life or improve the quality of life.
