Board Certified Injury Attorney explain asbestos exposure cases and the Jones Act

The family of George Greer, Sr. recently filed a Jones Act case against 13 companies who they believe caused Mr. Greer's death. The families claim that Mr. Greer was exposed to asbestos while working offshore.

Mr. Greer worked for various defendants from the 1960s to the 1980s. He worked as a seaman during that time. He was allegedly exposed to the deadly substance asbestos.

Mr. Greer developed mesothelioma which caused his death.

Mr. Greer's surviving family members seek compensation for his medical expenses, mental anguish, and suffering.

Asbestos exposure and the Jones Act

Workers who are exposed to asbestos offshore can file a Jones Act case if they are "seamen." The law is favorable but complicated.

The Jones Act and Maritime Law Attorney Brian Beckcom handles these cases. Call today toll free 866.724.7800 to request more information or to schedule an appointment to speak with Mr. Beckcom
