Asbestos was a commonly used building material that was used in aspects such as insulation, floorings, fireproofing, brake pads, paints and adhesives. It was used for these purposes from 1993 right up until it was banned in 1999. As a result of this many properties throughout the UK still house asbestos containing materials.
When these asbestos containing materials are disturbed their fibres become airborne, which makes them easy to inhale. This is a problem due to the fact that when these fibres enter the body they cannot be broken down by our normal self-defence systems, so when they are inhaled into our lungs they remain there and as a result can cause damage to the tissue, which can develop into serious disorders. For example if you have suffered long term or repetitive exposure to asbestos you run the risk of suffering problems such as the following:
• Pleural Mesothelioma
• Lung Cancer
• Asbestosis
• Pleural disorders
In many cases with asbestos related illness you may not start showing symptoms of being ill for several months or even years after being exposed to it but as long as you can prove that there is a link between your illness and your exposure to asbestos then you could have a claim for compensation.
Here at Accident Payout we are aware that no amount of money can compensate for the pain and suffering of an asbestos-related disease such as mesothelioma or emphysema but what compensation can do for you is ease your financial situation. It can ensure that you haven’t been left out of pocket because of your illness through an inability to work or because of medical costs. It will make things a little bit more comfortable for you and your family.
