Missouri Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lawyers

Asbestos was used as a heat retardant and insulator in Missouri’s manufacturing and chemical industries prior to knowing the health risks for employees. The state has a mix of older industries that are notorious for hazardous asbestos exposure.

The Mack Truck Plant, Ford Motor Company, and Chrysler facilities used asbestos gaskets on their engines and asbestos brake shoes on their wheels. Power plants used asbestos as insulation on pipes and tanks. Workers in boiler rooms and power plants even wore protective gear that used asbestos as an insulating material.

Unfortunately, many of the families of these workers also have an increased risk of developing cancer because of the asbestos fibers that were carried home on the body and clothing of those workers.

Whether you live in rural Missouri or in a major city like St. Louis, we will come to you, hear your story, and get to work on your behalf. You pay nothing unless we recover compensation on your behalf. Time is of the essence – don’t hesitate to call (888) 422-8877 or contact us online to schedule a free consultation today.

Filing an Asbestos Claim if You Live in Missouri

You do not have to file your claim in the state in which you live. 

It’s far more important to contact an attorney with a strong history of experience specifically in asbestos cases, than it is to select one who happens to be in your area of Missouri. The most successful attorneys in your area may have never handled an asbestos case.

SWMW attorneys dedicate the overwhelming majority of their time and effort prosecuting mesothelioma claims, so we know which states and jurisdictions are going to provide the best outcome for your case and can get your case settled faster.

We handle asbestos cases all across the USA, so we know how to file, where to file, and what to do to get you the compensation you deserve. Call (888) 422-8877 to speak with an Missouri mesothelioma and asbestos attorney at SWMW Law.
