$6,142,500
Our client was a 68-year-old woman diagnosed with malignant mesothelioma after having been exposed to asbestos-contaminated products.

Our 46-year-old client spent years demolishing and repairing buildings damaged by flood and fire, as well as doing boat repairs.

For decades, popular brands used talc mined from asbestos-contaminated sources, and this talc was included in powders marketed for feminine hygiene, facial use, and body freshness and these products cause mesothelioma.
