Asbestos Attorneys in Colorado for Victims of Mesothelioma/Lung Cancer

For nearly a century, asbestos was used across numerous fields of work in Colorado, putting countless hard-working citizens at risk of asbestos-related diseases. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, the Colorado personal injury lawyers at Carabin Shaw have the resources and experience needed to ensure that you win fair compensation.

Every state has government-organized support for those who have suffered harm due to asbestos exposure. However, filing asbestos lawsuits in Colorado requires the guidance of a trusted asbestos attorney. To learn more about how your specific circumstances impact your case, and how our expert attorneys can ensure that you win your maximum compensation, you can schedule a free case review with the experts at Carabin Shaw.

Colorado’s Legislative Council marks mining, farming, and ranching as some of the most pivotal economic sectors in the state. Because asbestos was used in so much heavy machinery, typically for insulation, anyone involved with these lines of work has been at risk of asbestos exposure.

Asbestos Nation calculates that there have been over 3,000 asbestos-related deaths in Colorado between 1999 and 2017. However, this number does not include individuals who are still living with an asbestos-related disease.

Exposure is not as uncommon as many people think, especially in high-risk fields throughout Colorado. Our asbestos attorneys for lung cancer victims at Carabin Shaw have supported injury victims for over 30 years. Our lawyers have the expertise and resources needed to fight for the compensation that you and your loved ones deserve.

Pursuing compensation for mesothelioma is different from other personal injury cases in Colorado. Namely, due to the prevalence of asbestos and the role that the government had in its widespread use, there are various funds in Colorado that are meant to be used as compensation for victims.

When pursuing asbestos claims in Colorado, compensation can cover:

• Costs of medical services and equipment
• Pain and suffering
• Impacted quality of life
• Lost income
• And other costs associated with living with mesothelioma

These funds can also compensate families of lost loved ones for wrongful death.

Our team is experienced with pursuing these funds for exposure victims and their loved ones. The paperwork and evidence necessary to build a case are very specific and are difficult to acquire for many victims. Extensive medical records and employment records from decades beforehand are among such documents.

Working with the Colorado mesothelioma lawyers at Carabin Shaw means hiring trusted attorneys who will fight, tooth and nail, for the compensation you and your loved ones need to recover from the emotional struggles of living with mesothelioma.

While trusts are available for victims of asbestos exposure, you may also be able to hold individuals responsible for your exposure. Most often, this includes the employers who contributed to your exposure or manufacturers that used asbestos in their products.

In some cases, even if you did not work directly with asbestos, you may be able to hold a company liable if a live-in family member worked with asbestos and exposed you to it second-hand.

The avenues for compensation for those who have mesothelioma are as varied as the ways in which someone can be exposed to asbestos. Working with experienced attorneys will help you build your strongest case. Visit Carabin Shaw reviews for evidence of the quality service we have provided over the last three decades.
