A jury awarded $5.5 million to the widows of three men who passed away from the asbestos cancer, mesothelioma. The three men were employees of a rubber company in the 1950s and 1960s. While working for this company, the men were repeatedly exposed to heavy concentrations of asbestos. The jury found that the company concealed the hazardous nature of its asbestos products from employees and therefore, awarded $5.5 million in compensation to the widows.
Many workers, e.g. construction workers, mechanics, boilermakers and others are at risk of being exposed to asbestos and developing cancers such as lung cancer and mesothelioma.

It's a good thing those ladies got a good mesothelioma asbestos attorney because it could have been possible that they would've lost the case. It's unfortunate that they couldn't celebrate the victory with their spouses. I don't understand how a company can cover up important facts like that. They are putting other lives a risk and don't even care about it. It's a shame.
