Our asbestos lawyers have decades of experience in helping those who have become seriously ill after exposure to asbestos. We have helped many Brooklyn Navy Yard workers file an asbestos lawsuit. 

If you or a loved one was exposed to asbestos while working at the Brooklyn Navy Yard or another shipyard in the U.S., you have the right to pursue a lawsuit against the makers and distributors of the asbestos-containing materials (ACM) responsible for your illness.

Because of the long latency period (the time between exposure and when symptoms of an asbestos disease are first noticed), the men and women who breathed in asbestos while working at the nation's shipyards as recently as the 1960s and 1970s are only now discovering they have contracted serious diseases such as mesothelioma cancer, asbestos-related lung cancer or asbestosis.

In 1991, our lawyers secured a $75 million verdict in a historic consolidated trial involving 36 men who worked at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in the 1940s and 1950s.

In 2000, a jury awarded a $9.8 million verdict to the family of an electrician who died of an asbestos-related cancer after years of employment in New York's power plants and at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. 

In addition, our attorneys have secured verdicts and settlements for clients diagnosed with asbestos-related diseases, including: 

• A $53 million verdict for a brake mechanic suffering from mesothelioma
• A $37 million verdict for 2 asbestos lung cancer plaintiffs
• A $47 million verdict for a boilermaker who died from mesothelioma
• A $12.7 million verdict for an iron worker who was injured due to unsafe working conditions
• A $64.65 million award for 4 asbestos plaintiffs
• A $17.5 million in a consolidated trial of 5 mesothelioma victims
• A $25 million jury verdict for a brake reliner
• A $30 million verdict for 7 former power-plant workers suffering from asbestos-related illnesses
• A $14 million consolidated verdict for 5 asbestos-related cancer suits involving workers at  shipyards, powerhouses and construction sites
• A $3.5 million verdict in 2 asbestos exposure cases
• A $44 million verdict in 5 asbestos cases, including a $11.6 million awarded to the widow of a sheet metal worker
