10. Could I Have Been Exposed to Asbestos In My Home?

Asbestos is asbestos, whether encountered in the workplace or at home. Even small amounts of asbestos and infrequent exposure can cause injuries. There are even reports of housewives who washed their husband's clothing contracting mesothelioma, a fatal asbestos-related cancer. Simply being in the same room or in the vicinity of someone else using asbestos can result in asbestos disease.

Exposure in the home could have also occurred when renovation or repair work was performed. Products such as joint compounds, wallboards, gaskets, fireproofing, pipe covering, cements, floor tiles, wires, mastic, ceiling tiles and boiler insulation often contained asbestos. If these products were mixed, grinded, cut, sawed, sprayed, removed or otherwise manipulated, banged or damaged, they could have released significant asbestos fibers into your home. The fibers remain airborne for weeks. You can't smell or see asbestos fibers.

In home exposure cases, we investigate every possible exposure to establish the manufacturers and sellers of the materials that were used. We use a wide variety of resources and our experience to prosecute your case. If you believe you have been injured by asbestos used in your home, contact Belluck & Fox by clicking here.
