Virginia Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lawyers
Asbestos Exposure in Virginia
Virginians are at risk of asbestos exposure from both the natural environment and industry. Virginia is also home to industries such as shipyards, power plants, oil refineries, and chemical laboratories which are notorious for asbestos use.
Statistics for Mesothelioma Cases in Virginia
Virginia ranks 11th in the US for asbestos-related deaths. There have been 1,077 deaths from mesothelioma and asbestos lung cancer between 1999 – 2013.
Filing an Asbestos Claim if You Live in Virginia
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 Virginia. 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.
