US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate Appeals to the Family of a Navy Veteran with Lung Cancer Anywhere in the USA Who Had Navy Asbestos Exposure to Call Attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste About Compensation It May Exceed $100,000
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate says, "We are appealing to the wife or adult son-daughter of a Navy Veteran who has been recently diagnosed with lung cancer to make it a priority to call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 if while in the navy he had significant exposure to asbestos. Financial compensation for a person like this might exceed $100,000 and we want to emphasize the claim does not involve suing the navy. Further it does not matter if the Veteran smoked cigarettes. What does matter is the Navy Veteran with lung cancer can recall the specifics of how, where and when they were exposed to asbestos. www.karstvonoiste.com/
"The reason we recommend, and we have endorsed Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste is because he is one of the nation's leading asbestos exposure attorneys and he specializes in compensation for Navy Veterans and or people who had heavy to extreme exposure to asbestos in the navy or at work prior to 1982 and who have recently been diagnosed with lung cancer. Most people like this never get compensated even though the $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for people exactly like this. If the person we have described sounds like your husband or dad, please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste anytime at 800-714-0303. We think you will be glad you did." www.karstvonoiste.com/
