Asbestosis

Shannon Law Firm represents asbestos victims who have been injured as a result of the inhalation of asbestos fibers. In particular, our attorneys represent mechanics, brake workers, boiler makers, welders, electricians, carpenters, pipefitters, brick layers, laborers, steel workers, insulators, and sheet metal workers who were exposed to asbestos prior to 1976.

Mechanics and brake workers who have been exposed to asbestos-containing friction products may have a higher risk of contracting asbestosis and certain cancers caused by asbestos exposure, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, bronchial cancer, esophageal cancer, bladder cancer, colon cancer, and certain other types of asbestos-related cancers. Mechanics and brake workers who were exposed to asbestos-containing friction products, such as brakes and clutches, and who test positive for an asbestos-related disease, may have a claim against the manufacturers and distributors of the asbestos-containing friction products.

We do not charge an attorney fee for personally consulting with you about your injury case. Many people do not have the money to hire a personal injury lawyer to protect their rights. You probably didn't have this unexpected injury figured into your budget. Now you have high medical bills, probably lost wages, and many other financial worries caused by this situation. It is unfair for these obstacles to prevent you from obtaining the full amount you are due under the law in just compensation for your injuries.

Don't just take the first offer of settlement from the insurance company if it doesn't fully compensate you for your loss and protect you from future complications. Protecting your rights is important to us. That's the reason we cover all expenses until the end of a case and then we are paid a portion of the funds recovered. If we are unable to recover compensation for you, you do not owe us a fee. This is called a "contingency fee" arrangement and is common among Mississippi personal injury attorneys.
