Illinois Asbestos Exposure
Our Illinois mesothelioma attorneys are experienced working with victims of asbestos exposure. Most people afflicted with mesothelioma are often exposed to the material during the course of their employment. Many of them were exposed while working in Chicago, St. Louis and throughout Illinois. These people, concerned only with making a living to support their families, did the jobs they were asked without questioning their employers and the materials they were asked to handle. At hundreds of job sites across the United States, including Illinois, thousands of workers were exposed to asbestos on a daily basis, putting their health, even their lives, at risk.
Unfortunately, direct exposure is not always necessary to have an increased risk of an asbestos-related disease. Simply working around the dangerous material can be enough to expose someone to a dangerous level of asbestos. Family members of those directly exposed to asbestos are also at risk if they inhale fibers brought home on work clothes. This is called “take-home” or “paraoccupational” exposure and can be just as dangerous as direct exposure.
