New Jersey Asbestos & Mesothelioma Attorneys
For decades, people who worked in construction and other heavy industrial sites in the United States—the union workers, tradesmen, pipe fitters, sheet metal workers, and boilermakers—were often unknowingly exposed to asbestos. As a result, injuries to their respiratory systems often surface twenty, thirty, even fifty years later in the form of lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma. Shivers, Gosnay & Greatrex, LLC has handled hundreds of cases for clients who suffer from asbestos related disease. Many of these cases involve claims of product liability, with suits brought against the manufacturers and distributors of the dangerous products.
If you or a loved one is suffering from mesothelioma, asbestos related lung disease, or any other asbestos related health problem, contact our Cherry Hill office to arrange a free consultation.
