Extensive Use of Asbestos

The Galiher Law Firm has been working with clients suffering from mesothelioma for over three decades. All of our clients have developed this devastating disease due to their exposure to asbestos. Until the1980’s asbestos was one of the most extensively used industrial products in the world. Asbestos was an ideal industrial material because it was easily available, very inexpensive, extremely versatile, strong and durable. Asbestos was commonly used in insulation and fireproofing materials, cement, electrical wiring, gaskets, packing and household items.

Asbestos was an ingredient in so many items throughout the twentieth century it is typically very difficult for people to recall where they may have been exposed to this hazardous material. The Galiher Law Firm is highly experienced in investigating where and when a client’s exposure to asbestos has occurred.
