What Kind of Damages Are Available in an Aluminum Smelting & Refining Plant Asbestos Lawsuit?
In an Aluminum Smelting & Refining plant asbestos lawsuit, various types of damages may be available to compensate individuals who have suffered harm due to asbestos exposure.
These damages can include:
-
Medical Expenses: Victims of asbestos exposure often incur substantial medical bills for the diagnosis, treatment, and management of asbestos-related illnesses, including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer.
-
Lost Wages: Asbestos-related illnesses can lead to disability and lost income due to the inability to work. Compensation may cover past, present, and future lost earnings.
-
Pain and Suffering: Victims may be entitled to damages for the physical and emotional distress associated with their asbestos-related illness, including pain, suffering, and a decreased quality of life.
-
Funeral and Burial Costs: In the unfortunate event of a wrongful death case, the family may be entitled to compensation for the expenses associated with the funeral and burial of the deceased.
