Many of our clients were exposed to asbestos in shipyards across the country. During the construction and maintenance of American warships and other large vessels, shipyard workers and military personnel were commonly exposed to asbestos-containing boilers, wall insulation, turbines, pipe covering, pumps, gaskets, cement and other asbestos containing products.
We have collected brief histories and information on some of the major shipyards across the Unites States. People who worked at these shipyards are at risk to develop asbestos diseases including malignant mesothelioma and asbestos related lung cancer.
