Lung Cancer Asbestos Victims Center Now Urges a Person with Lung Cancer Who Had Exposure to Asbestos at Work or in the US Navy to Call About Possible Significant Compensation
NEW YORK, Aug. 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Lung Cancer Asbestos Victims Center says, "We are appealing to a US Navy Veteran or a person who has been recently diagnosed with any type of lung cancer to call us anytime at 800-714-0303 about what could be significant financial compensation if they had heavy exposure to asbestos at work or while in the serving in navy. We are not talking about people with mesothelioma, we are talking about people with lung cancer who had constant exposure to asbestos at a factory, mill, oil refinery, power plant, public utility, or as a skilled tradesman.
"The possible compensation amounts could vary, but we are potentially talking about tens of thousands, to hundreds of thousands of dollars for lung cancer victims who were exposed to asbestos on a navy ship, or workers exposed to asbestos at a shipyard, a factory, or an industrial workplace. According to the American Cancer Society, for nonsmokers who have been exposed to asbestos in their workplace the risk of lung cancer is five times that of unexposed workers. We are urging family members or friends to share our contact information with a friend or relative if they now have lung cancer and they had workplace exposure to asbestos." http://LungCancerAsbestosVictimsCenter.Com
Important Note from The Lung Cancer Asbestos Victims Center: "According to the Veterans Administration there are currently about 21 million US Veterans. Of this group about 35% served in the US Navy. The states with the largest concentrations of US Navy Veterans include Virginia, Washington, Maine, California, New York, Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, Louisiana, Illinois, Idaho, Alaska, Hawaii, Arizona, West Virginia, and Oregon. Lung cancer caused by asbestos exposure may not show up until decades after the exposure. http://LungCancerAsbestosVictimsCenter.Com
Aside from US Navy Veterans the Lung Cancer Asbestos Victims Center is very focused on identifying specific types of people who were exposed to asbestos at work and now have lung cancer. These work groups include:
- Power Plant Workers
- Shipyard Workers
- Manufacturing Workers
- Oil Refinery Workers
- Public Utility Workers
- Aerospace Workers
- Pulp and Paper Mill Workers
- Steel Mill Workers
- Chemical Plant Workers
- Railroad Workers
- Electricians, Plumbers or Skilled Trades Workers
The Lung Cancer Asbestos Victims Center's number one goal is doing everything possible to see to it that people with lung cancer in the United States get compensated if they were heavily exposed to asbestos at an industrial or manufacturing workplace and or while they were serving in the US Navy.
