Asbestos-related disease
Asbestos-related disease The most serious asbestos diseases are mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis. Lung cancer and asbestosis symptoms often last for years and are likely to have a fatal outcome, whereas mesothelioma is typically of shorter duration and often proves fatal within a matter of months.
With mesothelioma the amount of compensation you may be entitled too could be in the region of £47,850 to £74,300. The duration of pain and suffering accounts of the variation in the amount awarded.
Fatal lung cancer could fetch in the region of £45,800 to £58,500.
Asbestosis which causes impairment of the extremities of the lungs so that the oxygen uptake to the blood stream is reduced could fetch the amount of £28,000 to £61,500. This is where mobility and seriously impaired quality of life is reduced.
For pleural plaques which not normally cause any symptoms but may be accompanied by psychological injury causing disability, the amount you could be entitled too could be in the region of £6,100 to £7,125.
At the lower end of the scale where the persons excludes any risk of the development of mesothelioma, lung cancer or asbestos could fetch in the region of £4,000 to £6,100.
