LHD Lawyers are asbestos compensation experts

Asbestos, a natural mineral fibre, was extensively utilised in construction projects in Australia (and globally) from the 1940s to 1985. It was incorporated into more than 3,000 building products in Australia, including fibro-cement sheeting and heat-resistant clothing.

Prolonged exposure to asbestos can lead to lung damage, and diseases related to asbestos may not manifest symptoms until many years after the initial exposure. LHD Lawyers have a dedicated team of experts in asbestos compensation claims ready to discuss any health problems that may be linked to asbestos exposure.

Can I claim for asbestos exposure? 

If you have an asbestos-related disease after being exposed to asbestos in a public or work environment, you may be able to claim for compensation. You can claim start a compensation claim, even if:

  • Your employer is no longer in business
  • You are no longer working at the place you were exposed
  • You were self-employed or a contractor
  • You are (or were) a smoker
  • You only suffered from second-hand exposure

You can also apply for asbestos claim compensation even if you were exposed over 50 years ago, if the exposure was not work-related, or if it occurred during home renovations.
