If you are a Navy Veteran who has lung cancer anywhere in Nevada call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 if before 1982 you had significant exposure to asbestos.” — Nevada US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, USA, February 18, 2022 /EINPresswire.com / -- The Nevada US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate says, 'If you are a Navy Veteran who has just been diagnosed with lung cancer in Las Vegas, Reno, Carson City, Henderson or anywhere in Nevada please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 if before 1982 you had significant exposure to asbestos on a navy ship, submarine or at a shipyard. Financial compensation for a person like this might exceed $100,000 and in no way does this claim involve suing the navy. Additionally, it does not matter if the person smoked cigarettes.
'What does matter is the Navy Veteran who has recently diagnosed lung cancer can recall some of the specifics of how they were exposed to asbestos in the service. Before 1982 Navy Sailors could have had routine exposure to asbestos in a ship's engine room, or as a member of a repair crew on a ship, submarine or at a navy shipyard. If the person-we have just described sounds like your husband or dad please call attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste anytime at 800-714-0303 to discuss possible compensation. The call to Erik is no obligation.'
The Nevada US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate's free services are available to people with asbestos exposure lung cancer or mesothelioma Las Vegas, Henderson, Reno, Paradise, Enterprise, Carson City or anywhere in Nevada.
High-risk work groups for exposure to asbestos in Nevada include Veterans of the US Navy, a civilian employee at Nellis Air Force Base, a worker at one of Nevada's half dozen-plus power plants, shipyard workers who moved to Nevada, oil refinery
workers, steel mill workers, miners, factory workers, public utility workers, miners, plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, machinists, and construction
workers. Note most people diagnosed with asbestos exposure lung cancer or mesothelioma in Nevada were exposed to asbestos in another state. Typically, the exposure to asbestos occurred in the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, or 1980's.
According to the American Cancer Society for nonsmokers who have been exposed to asbestos in their workplace the risk of lung cancer is five times that of unexposed workers. .
The US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate says,“If your husband, dad, coworker or neighbor has just been diagnosed with lung cancer and you know they had significant exposure to asbestos in the navy, at a shipyard or while working at a factory, at power plant, public utility, or as a plumber, electrician welder, mechanic or any kind of skilled trades group in any state please have them call us anytime at 800-714-0303. Most people like this never get compensated-even though the asbestos trust funds were set up for them too. We are trying to change this sad fact.”
States with the highest incidence of lung cancer include Kentucky, West Virginia, Maine, Tennessee, Mississippi, Ohio, Indiana, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Alabama, and Delaware.
