In the United States, there are nearly 9 million people who struggle with chronic bronchitis. This pulmonary condition entails the long-term inflammation of the bronchi, which are the large air passages that connect the windpipe to the lungs. While the condition can have numerous causes, such as tobacco smoking, a few medical studies found a causal relation between chronic bronchitis and asbestos exposure. However, it is not clear whether the condition is directly the result of asbestos exposure or if asbestos exposure worsens it. Nonetheless, if you have this diagnosis and a history of asbestos exposure, we strongly advise you to seek medical attention to find out if the two have a link.
Our team of professionals has over 35 years of experience in evaluating personal injury and product liability claims and is here to help you find out whether you qualify for compensation as a victim of asbestos exposure. The only documents we will need from you are your employment or military records, as well as your medical records, which we will thoroughly assess to determine your eligibility.
Although this process is complex, it will require minimal involvement on your part, as we are aware that people injured by asbestos exposure are usually in a lot of physical and emotional pain. Once we deem you eligible, you can proceed with the legal process with the help of a specialized attorney.
