Impact of Asbestos in Beaumont

Beaumont, Texas, known for its crucial role in the American oil boom, has a multi-faceted legacy that extends beyond its significant economic contributions. With a bustling industrial sector that ranged from refineries to shipyards and chemical plants, Beaumont witnessed extensive use of asbestos during the 20th century. The resilient and heat-resistant properties of asbestos made it the material of choice in various sectors, especially within the city’s thriving petrochemical industries. However, the very features that made asbestos popular are what have endangered many Beaumont residents. It’s estimated that thousands have been exposed to asbestos, leading to a significant uptick in related health issues. For context, the state of Texas ranks among the top states in the U.S. for malignant mesothelioma deaths, with Beaumont being a notable hotspot due to its industrial past.

The challenges arising from this exposure aren’t merely health-related. Given the often-decades-long latency period of asbestos-related diseases, many in Beaumont are only beginning to experience the devastating effects of exposure. With a rising number of mesothelioma and asbestosis diagnoses in the region, there’s an increasing need for specialized legal support. KRW Lawyers stands committed to aiding those affected, helping them navigate the intricate legal landscape and ensuring they receive the justice and compensation they deserve. The story of asbestos in Beaumont underscores the profound intersection of industry, health, and justice, emphasizing the indispensable role of dedicated legal advocacy.

LEGAL CASES

What is Asbestos and mesothelioma? This is a great question and there is a lot of confusion about both. We are here to explain both.

Asbestos is a mineral that was used in many commercial and industrial products throughout the United States until the late 1980s. Asbestos has powerful insulating and fire-resistant properties which made it a very attractive material for use in a variety of products, including building materials, insulation, and others. Asbestos is still mined in many parts of the world, though in the United States, manufacturers are prohibited from using it in many products. However, asbestos remains widespread in many products that were made before the ban.
