Levy, Phillips & Konigsberg, LLP, a New York and New Jersey-based law firm that specializes in
Asbestos exposure lawsuits, has filed a lawsuit on behalf of a Wayne, New Jersey, victim who was exposed to Asbestos in the workplace due to contact with products, fibers, dust, and particles at various locations. He was first exposed at Kearny Federal Shipyard as well as on the USS Atlanta and the USS Juno. He also experienced Asbestos exposure in the workplace during his employment at PSE & G. During his tenure at PSE & G, the plaintiff worked at Kearny Generating Station Fish House Road, in Kearny, New Jersey; Kearny Generating Station, in Jersey City, New Jersey; and PSE & G, in Richfield Park, New Jersey. It was at these job sites that the mesothelioma victim serviced various machinery and performed work on ships, which unknowingly exposed him to Asbestos. LPK has filed the Asbestos exposure lawsuit on behalf of this man because he was unknowingly exposed at these job sites, and was diagnosed at the age of eighty-five while living in Wayne, New Jersey. This lawsuit was filed by
mesothelioma trial lawyers at LPK in Middlesex County Court of New Jersey, located in central New Jersey, against the companies responsible for the Asbestos exposure in the workplace.
Asbestos is the only known cause of mesothelioma, a lethal
type of cancer that lodges mainly in the lining of the abdomen and
lungs. Mesothelioma usually arises at least fifteen or more years after
Asbestos exposure in the workplace or home. Asbestos can trigger
mesothelioma even when the exposure occurs for a short period of time.
Asbestos fibers are microscopic and exposure can take place without a
worker being consciously aware that such an event has transpired.
Mesothelioma occurs not only in people exposed to Asbestos in the workplace while in contact with products, but also in bystanders and family members exposed the dust.
Mesothelioma trial lawyers at LPK have prosecuted Asbestos exposure lawsuits on behalf of mesothelioma victims in New York and New Jersey for more than twenty-five years.
