For many years asbestos products were used in the home, throughout industry and in building materials. Today asbestos is the single biggest cause of work related deaths in the UK. It is predicted that the number of people who die each year from mesothelioma, a rare cancer caused by exposure to asbestos, will continue to increase for the next 20 years. It is currently estimated that 2,700 people die each year from mesothelioma alone. If you have been diagnosed as suffering from a condition caused by asbestos, it is important that you contact a firm with specialist knowledge in handling asbestos related claims.
