U.S. Navy Battleships and Asbestos Exposure

The ensuing list provides the battleships that contained asbestos containing materials and exposed countless unsuspecting U.S. Navy Sailors, shipyard and maritime workers and longshoremen to asbestos. The exposure to asbestos can result in the development of asbestos-related diseases such as mesothelioma.

Our lawyers understand the urgency, and we work quickly to identify veterans' duty stations, service dates and assignments to pinpoint the products and machines encountered during their Navy stint. We offer a free, no-obligation case evaluation and we will come to you, anywhere in the United States. Call toll free at (888) 506-1131 or use our online contact form.

Michael Throneberry gave me a whole new outlook on attorneys'! A very caring person who was more concerned with my health than a case. Truly unexpected! He explained possible conditions in english and even found the right doctors in my area. Prepared me for the right questions to ask the doctors so that I can understand my illness better. A great person and a great human being! Thank you. Greg
