New York has had a long-running history of asbestos litigation. Many residents were exposed to this hazardous substance. In recent times, there have been more claims against former asbestos manufacturers than ever before. These cases are the result of the recognition that asbestos is linked to diseases such as mesothelioma and lung cancer. These companies were aware the dangers that asbestos posed but did not take the time to warn the employees and the public.

New York City is especially susceptible to diseases caused by asbestos because of its old structures and many construction sites. The Brooklyn Navy Yard was a notoriously toxic location that continues to impact on the community surrounding it.

A study shows that more than 3,600 lawsuits have been filed since 2014 in New York courts. This number could grow. Specialized asbestos law firms typically advertise on daytime TV and encourage victims to submit claims under the premise that they will receive substantial settlements.

Asbestos-related diseases

A wide range of asbestos-related diseases can develop because of exposure to the toxic mineral. The most serious condition is mesothelioma. Many people have died due to mesothelioma. Other asbestos-related illnesses include lung cancer, asbestosis, pleural plaques and pleural effusion.

Mesothelioma is a rare, but fatal disease caused by exposure to asbestos fibers which accumulate in the lungs, and can cause irritation to the lining of the chest cavity, ribcage and abdominal cavity (the pleura). Inhaling these tiny fibers can result in scarring of the lungs, a condition known as asbestosis and occasionally, the formation of thickened patches on the pleura called plaques of pleura or the more widespread fibrosis of the pleura, referred to as diffused pleural fibrosis. Pleural plaques or diffuse fibrosis could reduce lung capacity as measured by breathing test. They also cause breathing problems and pain, though they do not lead to cancer or mesothelioma.

Symptoms of asbestos-related disease often are not evident until years after the initial exposure. This is due to the fact that it can take between 20 and 50 years for the inhalation of asbestos-containing fibers to cause lung damage. People who are at risk of developing mesothelioma or any other asbestos-related ailments include those who handled, laundered and removed asbestos-containing products from the workplace and spouses and children of those who were exposed to asbestos.

As well as mesothelioma, other asbestos-related diseases include lung cancer, laryngeal cancer, peritoneal mesothelioma, and ovarian mesothelioma. The most dangerous form of mesothelioma is called ovarian cancer, but it's less frequent than the general mesothelioma. It is often diagnosed later than other kinds of mesothelioma due to the fact that it is a cancer that develops in the lining of the reproductive organs, and the symptoms may be similar to those of other illnesses.
