A Letter From Walter McAdam
Back in the early 1960's I served a four year apprenticeship with the Charles Hartmann Co. I obtained my full journeyman's card in January 1965 and left the trade to become a New York City Police Officer. I retired after twenty years of service and relocated the North Carolina.
In October 1997 I was diagnosed with an extremely rare and deadly cancer called Mesothelioma which attacks the lining of the lungs. It is a medically proven fact that the only way one can contract this cancer is through exposure to asbestos and asbestos related products. My exposure was proven to be with my experience with my work as a sheet metal worker on outside jobs and also through my experience in the US Navy as a Machinist Mate.
My reason for writing to you is to advise you and any member of your organization, that should they get stricken with this disease to contact Dr. Sugarbaker in Boston at 617-732-6824. He is a pioneer in the field of Mesothelioma and the only hope of prolonging one's life (There is no cure). The other reason for writing is to inform you of the attorneys I utilized in my law suit. They specialize in Mesothelioma and other asbestos related diseases. I found them to be honest, professional and trustworthy. They will not throw high dollar figures at you just to get you to sign up with them. They are very plain spoken and don't try to confuse you with a lot of legal mumbo jumbo. They have offices in New York and Connecticut. The attorney in New York may be contacted at:
Attorney Mark Strauss
The Graybar Building, Suite E840
420 Lexington Ave.
New York, NY 10017
Phone: (888) 327-2529
I was very happy with the way my case was handled and recommend them.
Sincerely,
Walter McAdam
