Asbestos exposure has been a hidden danger in many industries, including aviation. For years, Boeing aircraft and manufacturing facilities may have used asbestos-containing materials or made turbines and other components containing the mineral, putting countless workers at risk of developing serious health conditions like mesothelioma, asbestosis, lung cancer, and more. At Phillips Law Group, we stand with individuals and families who have been harmed by this preventable tragedy and may be able to assist with Boeing asbestos exposure claims.
Asbestos Exposure Dangers
Exposure to asbestos can be dangerous and is directly linked to a number of lung diseases and cancers. Mesothelioma, for instance, is directly linked to asbestos exposure and exposure to asbestos causes most cases of mesothelioma, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) – a federal public health agency within the United States Department of Health and Human Services’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention – “Disturbing asbestos minerals or other asbestos-containing materials can release tiny asbestos fibers, too small to see, into the air. Breathing asbestos can cause tiny asbestos fibers to get stuck in the lungs and irritate lung tissues. Workers and others who breathed asbestos fibers over many years have developed asbestos-related cancer and noncancer diseases.”
“Some of these diseases can be serious or even fatal,” the agency added.
Sadly, many individuals who may be eligible to make a Boeing asbestos exposure claim have developed asbestos-related lung diseases like pulmonary fibrosis, mesothelioma, lung cancer, and more.
Boeing Worker Asbestos Exposure
If you or a loved one worked at a Boeing facility or on Boeing aircraft and later received a diagnosis of an asbestos-related disease, you may be entitled to compensation. Boeing workers, including mechanics, engineers, and assembly-line personnel, may have been unknowingly exposed to asbestos in many aerospace components.
Boeing has faced lawsuits over asbestos exposure in the past. However, every case is unique, and navigating asbestos litigation requires a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney. The team at Phillips Law Group may be able to help.
