Asbestosis claims solicitors
Asbestosis is a lung disease caused by exposure to asbestos and not as often thought a term describing all asbestos-related illnesses, which includes diseases such as mesothelioma or non-cancerous thickening of the pleural cavity of the lungs. Asbestosis is a type of pneumoconiosis and a result of inhalation of asbestos fibres possibly going as far back as 30 years. This is due to the long latency period of the condition. Asbestosis is usually diagnosed after testing by x-ray, scan and lung function.
Have you been diagnosed with Asbestosis? You could be due a compensation reward to cover your pain and suffering, medical costs, ongoing care costs and loss of earnings.
What are the Symptoms of Asbestosis?
If you have contracted Asbestosis this could be many years after the initial exposure. Your symptoms could include:
- Difficulty Breathing
- Coughing
- Wheezing
- Finger Clubbing
How Yorkshire’s specialist Asbestosis solicitors can help you
The prognosis for someone with Asbestosis is not straightforward and is dependent on numerous factors. Therefore, once diagnosed with Asbestosis you may feel worried and concerned. As a result of this uncertainty we aim to reassure our clients by helping them with medical advice, thoroughly explaining the claims process in a clear and transparent way and making the claims process as simple and hassle-free as possible.
Ison Harrison’s Asbestosis solicitors have over 25 years’ experience in helping people with a historical exposure to harmful substances seek the industrial disease compensation they deserve.
We have helped people across the UK and in particular in Leeds, where we assisted many employees of the former J.W. Roberts factory in Armley Leeds, where historical asbestos exposure and employer negligence was extensively proven.
Our Industrial disease solicitors not only understand the issues faced by victims of asbestos-related diseases but also those of their families, having dealt with many historical cases where the original victim has since died, and the family still wishes to pursue its rightful case for damages. In these and all such cases, we have the legal skills and expertise to research historical information to establish negligence and liability, bearing in mind that in many cases, an employer may have changed name, location or ceased trading altogether in the meantime.
