If you or a loved one was a Union steamfitter in the 1950s, 1960s, or 1970s, you were likely exposed to asbestos. In this video, dedicated New York mesothelioma attorney Mathew J. Morton discusses more about steamfitters and asbestos exposure and how our law firm can help if you’ve been exposed to asbestos.

The Union Steamfitters were in charge of supplying the steam lines throughout industrial and commercial sites throughout New York State.

This job required them to install and remove asbestos-containing gaskets, insulation and even packing on the equipment.

This caused tremendous amounts of dust in the air from the asbestos, gaskets, and insulation, exposing these workers to hazardous amounts of asbestos.

Unfortunately, steamfitters’ asbestos exposure was quite common in the past.

If you or a loved one was a Union steamfitter and have been diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer, please give us a call. We can help you.
