Prosecuting Asbestos Exposure Cases in Texas - Pursuing a Personal Injury Lawsuit

Asbestos is an effective insulator for heat and electricity that, for a long time, no one knew was capable of causing incurable cancers and other illnesses. Texas is a home to many of the biggest industries that have exposed workers to this substance for decades, resulting in countless asbestos exposure cases in Texas. After you have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness, you must file a claim within the statute of limitations and Carabin Shaw asbestos lawyers will guarantee that you have your strongest possible case when you do.

According to The Mesothelioma Center, Texas is ranked 5th in the United States for deaths related to asbestos. This is due, in part, to the many chemical, oil, and manufacturer industries that dominate Texas economies. Regardless of how you were exposed, you are entitled to justice and compensation through Texas asbestos litigation.

Many victims of asbestos exposure already know that legal cases such as prosecuting asbestos lawsuits carry with them unique complications. From requiring old employment information that can be difficult to acquire, to legal issues that require specific and in-depth knowledge, these cases are rarely capable of being handled without expert legal advice.

At Carabin Shaw, through our free case review, we work with you individually to understand your case in full and offer you the best guidance that you can find.

Proving liability in, or successfully recovering compensation for, asbestos lung cancer claims in Texas is rooted in providing impactful evidence. More often than not, this comes down to providing evidence that a line of work exposed you to asbestos, largely because the majority of victims were exposed through work.

While anyone with a military history has a heightened risk of having been exposed to asbestos, victims can come into contact with the substance through any number of methods. From work, to the home, to being sold an improperly manufactured appliance, the “how” of the exposure doesn’t matter. All that matters is that you were exposed, and a trusted attorney will fight for the justice you deserve.

Evidence for asbestos cases can include:

• Medical records
• Testimonies from witnesses
• Expert opinions, such as verified research
• Records of employment history

Compared to many states, Texas requires more evidence for those prosecuting asbestos exposure. Our team has the hard-won experience and resources you need. Additionally, alongside our free cae review, we offer our services on a contingency-fee basis so that victims of asbestos exposure do not need to worry about costs until compensation has been received.

Similar to establishing an asbestos exposure claim, estimating the value of a claim is a complicated process. Depending on circumstances, a victim and their lawyer can seek compensation from Veterans’ Affairs, personal injury claims, wrongful death lawsuits, and asbestos trust funds, of which there are over 60 according to Mesothelioma.com. Reach us at the toll-free number 800-862-1260, which runs 24/7, to learn more about the specific options available to you.

The value of a claim is usually determined by proving the following:

• The dates and circumstances of the asbestos exposure
• How long you were exposed to the material
• The type of asbestos involved, or the asbestos-containing material or product
• A medical diagnosis for an illness caused by asbestos, such as lung cancer
