Philadelphia Asbestos Legal Questions
Where was asbestos used in Philadelphia industries?
In Philadelphia, asbestos was prevalently used in shipyards, manufacturing plants, and the construction industry. Specific sites include the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard, which was known for its extensive use of asbestos in ship construction and repair. Additionally, many older buildings in the city, from schools to commercial buildings, incorporated asbestos-containing materials in insulation, flooring, and roofing.
How do I know if I have an asbestos-related illness?
Identifying an asbestos-related illness starts with recognizing the symptoms, which often include shortness of breath, persistent cough, and chest pain. Asbestos-related diseases, such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma, typically take years to manifest after exposure.
Can I sue my employer for an asbestos related disease caused by exposure at work?
Under Pennsylvania’s Workers Compensation Act employees give up the right to sue their employers for work related injuries in exchange for the compensation available under the Act. However, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court changed that in cases where an employee is diagnosed with an occupational disease, such as that caused by asbestos exposure, more than 300 weeks after the end of their employment.
