Asbestos Attorneys in Ohio
Home to several utility and power plants; the oil refineries of BP Amoco, Shell Oil and Sunoco; and to the American Shipbuilding shipyard, Ohio is known to thrive on asbestos industries. Because Ohio greatly depends on the industries that are known to have used asbestos for its resistance to friction and heat, thousands of Ohio residents have and continue to suffer the harsh effects of asbestos exposure.
More than 445,000 tons of asbestos-containing vermiculite was shipped into Ohio between 1948 and 1993. The asbestos-rich ore originated in Libby, Montana and was distributed to 14 different sites located throughout the state, including Cleveland, Port Clinton, North Bloomfield, Warren, Dayton, Barberton, Cincinnati and East Palestine.
Records show, however, that more than 90 percent of the vermiculite was stored in Marysville. Thus, individuals who worked and lived in Marysville are considered to be at the highest risk of asbestos exposure among Ohio residents.
