Phoenix Mesothelioma Lawyer

Though the city of Phoenix had a tremendous growth following Second World War, unfortunately it was in a time when the use of asbestos was at its peak. The proximity of Phoenix to West Coast markets and the pro-business environment existed in the area attracted numerous high-tech and manufacturing industries to the city. Thus Phoenix became home to a number of factories and power plants. All these plants extensively used asbestos until the 1970s. Consequently, many former Phoenix workers developed mesothelioma and other asbestos-related ailments.

At present, more than $30bn is available in mesothelioma trust funds. An efficient Phoenix mesothelioma lawyer can help asbestos exposure victims obtain compensation from these funds in just 90 days. Additionally, a mesothelioma lawyer can also assist you in suing the responsible companies in the court of law.

West Phoenix Power Plant

West Phoenix Power Plant, the largest electric utility in Arizona, is one of the seven gas-powered generation plants owned by the Arizona Public Service. The plant has been modernized and expanded recently. However, it was constructed and began operating in a time when all power stations used large quantities of asbestos due to its low cost and excellent features like high strength and ability to resist fire and heat. As a result, many workers employed at the West Phoenix plant prior to the 1980s were exposed to high levels of asbestos on a daily basis. Many of them later developed life-threatening medical conditions including malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer.
