New York Mesothelioma Lawyers

Weitz & Luxenberg – Champion to the asbestos-injured American worker


October 11, 2010 – Thousands of U.S. workers have received significant financial compensations for work-related incidents of asbestos exposure that developed into deadly diseases, such as asbestos-linked lung cancer and mesothelioma. Their awards were achieved with professional representation from the lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg, New York’s preeminent personal injury law firm that specializes in providing mesothelioma legal support for asbestos-injured workers.

Weitz & Luxenberg, recognized nationally in this area of litigation, has secured record-setting verdicts and settlements for clients since the 1980s. Last year our lawyers obtained a $2.16-million settlement for the family of a New York City construction worker who died of mesothelioma. And in 2008, our lawyers achieved a $16.25 million verdict for a client in a complaint against a dental supply company that marketed asbestos-based dental tape.

Mesothelioma is the signature asbestos-related cancer. According to a mesothelioma cancer attorney at our firm, there are approximately 3,000 cases of mesothelioma diagnosed every year in the United States – and nearly each case was preventable.

That’s because mesothelioma is caused by occupational asbestos exposure that results from nothing more or less than negligence; the negligence of employers and asbestos product manufacturers who knew of the health dangers of their products, but deliberately chose fast corporate profits over the expense of maintaining safe working conditions for workers.

If obvious precautions were taken by certain asbestos companies, thousands of U.S. workers would not have been subjected to the horrors of mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases that together kill 10,000 people every year in this country.
