asbestos law

Legal Definitions > asbestos law definition

Exposure to asbestos can cause Mesothelioma, a rare form of cancer, and Asbestosis, a noncancerous scarring of the lungs by asbestos fibers. 

Asbestos products liability lawsuits are claims brought against suppliers of raw asbestos fiber and claims against manufacturers of products brought where insulators and other asbestos workers contracted asbestos-related diseases as a result of exposure to the manufactured products.
