Colorado Asbestos Lung Cancer Lawsuits - Empowering Victims to Seek Justice
Long before it was discovered or used in Colorado, asbestos played an important role in the everyday lives of the ancient Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Persian civilizations. Remarkably, despite these early civilizations uncovering a link between asbestos exposure and lung health, this naturally occurring mineral was still widely used until the 1980s.
Touted for its strength, flexibility, and insulating and fire-resistant properties, asbestos was used extensively in construction and manufacturing. Unfortunately, when someone breathes in the fine particles they can become lodged in the lungs and remain there causing irritation and leading to serious health complications such as asbestosis and mesothelioma. To make the situation worse, asbestos exposure can stay dormant in the body without symptoms for decades.
If you or someone you know suffers from mesothelioma, read on, then contact an asbestos lawyer in Colorado at Carabin Shaw to find out how a lawsuit might help you win the compensation you deserve.
What to do After Asbestos Exposure in ColoradoThough asbestos is rarely used in new construction and despite strict policies and regulations, those who work in the fields of demolition, remodeling, or repurposing are, to this day, all too frequently exposed to these potentially fatal fibers.

One avenue for this is through a Colorado asbestos lung cancer lawsuit.
