Asbestos Claims in Bristol: Background

Asbestos Claims Bristol

Many people in the Bristol and Avon area have reported asbestos and mesothelioma illnesses, including cancer. The reason for this high percentage of sufferers is due to Bristol’s history as a trading and manufacturing city – the material was still in use up until the 1970s.

Whilst asbestos is no longer used in manufacturing and building construction, in the past it was very widespread. When asbestos fibres became airborne, they were absorbed in the lungs and resulted in a variety of illnesses, which were often not diagnosed for many years. These included lung cancer, asbestosis, and pleural thickening. The types of workers that have suffered from asbestosis typically include those in industry occupations, including:

As we explained earlier, often family members of these workers have been affected too, as the worker will have brought asbestos fibres into the home on their clothing. We also have a page regarding industrial disease claims in Bristol.

How Much Compensation Will You Receive?

Each case that we deal with in Bristol is very different. However, news from the Government stated that suffers who have contracted cancers and mesothelioma from asbestos exposure could receive as much as £123,000 in compensation. You can read more about that on the Government website. This is for cases where victims are unable to trace the insurance policies of now defunct companies that they worked for.

We always seek to locate old insurance policies when working on Bristol asbestos compensation claims. Even if the company no longer exists, in most cases the insurer will still be functioning, meaning that compensation can be paid out. If that’s not possible, then we work with our clients to make sure that they can claim compensation via the Government’s scheme and will support them in the process.
