Top-Rated Mesothelioma & Asbestos Exposure Attorney for Union Workers

Helping Union Workers Obtain Compensation For Asbestos Exposure

Because asbestos was used primarily in the manufacture of products and in building materials, many of the workers exposed to it were in industries such as manufacturing and construction. Workers in these types of industries typically belong to labor unions. Although union workers can collect workers’ compensation, they may need additional compensation to cover losses from asbestos-related cancer.

At Kelley Ferraro, LLC, we have represented thousands of union members over the past 18 years. We have experience with injured workers from all types of unions and industries. In addition, we represent union workers’ family members who have developed cancer from secondhand exposure to asbestos.

Working With Unions After Asbestos Exposure

For over 25 years, Kelley Ferraro, LLC, has worked tirelessly with unions whose members have suffered from the results of asbestos exposure. We understand the value in partnering with unions to expose and prosecute companies that have endangered their workers.

Asbestos exposure has been linked to numerous illnesses and cancers, including mesothelioma, gastrointestinal and colon cancer, esophageal cancer and lung cancer. We have experience proving the source of asbestos exposure in cancer cases and then holding the responsible companies accountable.

Union Workers Who May Be Entitled To Additional Compensation

Our lawyers represent workers in many industries, including:

  • Steel workers
  • Iron workers
  • Auto workers
  • Electricians
  • Boilermakers
  • Bricklayers
  • Plumbers
  • Railroad workers
  • Construction workers
  • Mill workers
  • Pipe fitters

In Ohio, you may collect damages from a negligent third party in addition to workers’ compensation. We file third-party personal injury and wrongful death suits against asbestos manufacturers and distributors.

Which Companies Can Be Sued For Asbestos Exposure?

No one told you that you or your loved one would suffer a serious injury as a result of working. Now, perhaps years later, you are facing a very serious injury – or the death of a loved one – because of asbestos. The company you worked for may have known about the potential danger of asbestos exposure. But what if it didn’t? Can you still recover compensation for your injuries?

Yes, you can. If your business knew of the danger, then we can bring a lawsuit against it. If it didn’t, we can still bring a lawsuit against the manufacturer of the material that caused you harm. Thousands of companies across the U.S. are facing claims – and paying out money – for asbestos exposure.
