Do I have any legal recourse if?
Question by onegrtchf: Do I have any legal recourse if?
My work place replaced some floor tiling that was said to be made from Asbestos, and at the time of it’s removal was not at first tested for contaminant levels being of a dangerous nature. The Man responsible for it’s testing (or not because he didn’t) was fired because they were not sent out to see if any concerns were to be warranted. Now my employer and the buildings owner (we are a contracted service) is playing who is the liable game, and we haven’t been allowed to seek Medical testing to see if our lungs were at all subjected to contaminants at their expense until they iron this question of liability out..What if anything can I & fellow co-workers do? I am just suspicious that they had an independent Co. test the air and found it to be within the acceptable limits of Osha standards, but that was then after the removal and not before. What can or should I do if anything, Can I?

Relax. Asbestos floor tiles are harmless unless pulverized into dust or you decide to ingest them.

Q&A: Is there any recourse for a FHA inspection that was a sham? The inspector did not turn up the asbestos in home
Question by Pedro: Is there any recourse for a FHA inspection that was a sham? The inspector did not turn up the asbestos in home
I purchased a home in 1996 under FHA. Since the purchase of the home, I have found windows that don’t open, rooms with one or no electrical outlets and other things which should have been caught by the FHA inspector. Most recently (two months ago), I found out that there is asbestos in the basement. Is it too late to do anything and where do I start if it is not too late?

Article by Christopher Smith
Mesothelioma litigation can be counted as the most lengthy and costly health related law suits. Many reasons are there behind this.
