Asbestos Attorneys in North Dakota

North Dakota Asbestos AttorneysNorth Dakota residents have their share of asbestos cancer diseases such as mesothelioma cancer, lung cancer and asbestosis. Some North Dakotans contracted one of these lethal diseases during service in the Navy or another branch of the military; others were exposed to toxic levels of asbestos at home, school or work.

Several Asbestos Lawsuits Initiated in North Dakota

Although North Dakota is largely rural with agriculture as a primary industry, several other industries have provided dangerous asbestos exposure to employees and their families, including:

  • The BP Amoco oil refinery — Mandan
  • Power plants — Stanton's Powerhouse, Beulah's Coyote Station, and United Power
  • Robinson Insulation Company — Minot
  • Minot Air Force Base

Robinson Asbestos Insulation Company

For example, between 1948 and 1993 the Robinson Insulation Company processed hundreds of tons of asbestos-containing vermiculite from the mines in Libby, Montana. The Robinson employees were at significant risk of inhaling loose asbestos fibers in the processing plant as they manufactured insulation and other products with a high asbestos content.

Long Latency of Asbestos Diseases

Asbestos diseases have a very long latency — that is, they don't make themselves known until years or even decades after the asbestos exposure. Robinson employees, Navy veterans, and thousands of other people who were subjected to high asbestos exposure years ago may have the seeds of asbestos disease within them.

Additionally, individuals who never worked directly with asbestos may have incurred "secondary asbestos exposure" from the asbestos fibers clinging to the clothing, shoes and hair of a loved one who came home each day from a job that exposed him or her to asbestos.

Asbestos Is Prevalent in Construction Materials

Asbestos in construction materials is a possibility all over the state of North Dakota. Bricks, drywall, stucco, spackling, paint, roof tiles, ceiling tiles, flooring, and insulation in many forms (e.g., around pipes, electrical wires, boilers, furnaces) are just a sample of the asbestos products that may be in your home, school, library, and/or workplace.

If you're concerned about asbestos exposure and asbestos disease, contact mesothelioma centers to speak with an experienced North Dakota asbestos attorney who will help you recover the compensation you need and deserve.
