ASBESTOS EXPOSURE LEADS TO MESOTHELIOMA FOR EX-NAVAL MAN

While serving his country in the Navy, our client was exposed to a significant amount of asbestos, as his job directly dealt with asbestos removal from decommissioned ships. Due to his exposure to this dangerous and cancer-causing carcinogen, he developed Mesothelioma and is now in the care of Hospice. Asbestos exposure is the only known cause of mesothelioma and Military veterans, particularly those who served in the U.

S. Navy prior to the 1980s, make up the largest group of mesothelioma patients in the United States.

WOMAN RUN OVER BY GOLF CART AT PUT-IN-BAY

On Memorial Day weekend, our client was enjoying a day at Put-In-Bay in Ottawa County, Ohio, when she sustained several injuries in a golf cart accident. Our client had been standing with a group of her friends near a golf cart rental store when the at-fault party, who had just rented a golf cart, drove into the group, striking our client and injuring her. As a result, our client sustained injuries to her knees, feet, ankle, back, and hip. She is currently undergoing medical treatment.

In June 2021, our client was working on the brake lines of a camper when the jacks holding the camper upshifted, causing the camper to fall onto him. Unfortunately, his injuries were too severe, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Our client’s parents contacted our firm shortly after this tragic accident to assist them in navigating this difficult time.
