Woman files mesothelioma lawsuit on behalf of deceased father

It has been reported on www.asbestos.net that a woman whose father passed away from mesothelioma filed a lawsuit on his behalf. Mesothelioma is a cancer that is almost always caused by exposure to asbestos.The deceased father was exposed to asbestos at various jobs that he had held. He had worked as a mechanic in the U.S. Army from 1959 to 1961. He went on to work in construction from 1976 to 1983. In the construction field, he worked as a welder, mechanic and shop foreman.

Unfortunately, all the jobs held by the deceased father involve a high risk of exposure to asbestos. The injustice lies in the fact that many employers knew of the fatal dangers of asbestos but chose to conceal those dangers because asbestos is cheap and has a wide range of uses.
