Asbestos Lawyers
Representing Anheuser Busch Brewery workers in mesothelioma & lung cancer claims
The Lyon Firm is reviewing a wide range of Anheuser Busch Brewery asbestos exposure claims on behalf of former employees and contractors in St. Louis, Missouri and throughout the country. Brewers were known to use hazardous asbestos materials that may have caused cancer and other serious illnesses. Staff who spent time in Anheuser Busch facilities may have encountered toxic materials at the workplace.
Many old establishment breweries with household names were operating for decades with toxic materials in their buildings and warehouses. Employers did not know that much of the machinery and insulation contained cancer-causing material until decades after it was used. As a result, brewery workers could have been risking their health each and every day on the job for many years.
Even today, new asbestos cancer cases are diagnosed due to the long latency period of mesothelioma, a form of lung cancer that is directly linked to asbestos. Contact our lawyers to file a claims and to hold a negligent employer responsible for failing to protect you and your fellow workers.
A number of work safety and health agencies now warn of the severe health consequences of toxic asbestos exposure, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
It is now common knowledge that asbestos increases the risk of certain cancers and diseases dramatically, but this was not always the case. In fact, up until the mid 1970s, companies like Anheuser Busch gave no second thought to constructing their facilities with asbestos products.
As the material broke down over time, the fibers were sent into poorly ventilated work areas and workers of all kinds were impacted. Some workers even took these toxins home to their families and homes on their clothing, endangering their loves ones.
