At Braver Law, we're honored to stand up for heroes when they need help the most. Holding asbestos companies accountable is the least we can do to support those who have served our country.

The extensive use of asbestos in the military has put countless service members at risk over the decades. Asbestos was valued for its heat resistance and insulating abilities, causing it to be integrated into literally hundreds of products used on ships, aircraft, vehicles and military bases and facilities. 

‍

Asbestos was found in insulation, wiring, brakes, engines, boilers and more. Troops came into contact with the toxic material during hands-on work and maintenance activities. Even just by being in proximity to asbestos-containing equipment, they inhaled deadly fibers that can cause mesothelioma and other asbestos diseases.

The reality is that asbestos companies put profits over people, failing to warn troops about the true dangers of asbestos exposure even when hazards were suspected. Only in the 1970s did the military start to curb the use of asbestos, but even then, existing asbestos products remained in place, posing an ongoing risk to service members. Veterans were kept in the dark, and many developed mesothelioma later in life as a result.

‍

Today, the attorneys at Braver Law are focused on raising awareness about past asbestos use in the military. We're uncovering the hidden dangers veterans face so they can get the compensation they deserve after being put at risk while serving our  country.
