A financial compensation claim for a person like this might exceed $100,000 even if they smoked cigarettes and a claim like this does not involve suing the navy. Erik Karst is one of the nation's leading asbestos exposure lung cancer and mesothelioma attorneys and he and his team at Karst von Oiste consistently get the best compensation results for their clients.

The Advocate Says, "Navy Veterans and or people who decades ago had heavy exposure to asbestos in the navy and or at work and how now developed lung cancer almost never get compensated-even though many to most should. The $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for people exactly like this. The average person we are trying to identify is over 60 years old and their asbestos exposure took place in the 1960s or 1970s. If this sounds like a friend or person you know in any state, please share our press release with their wife or family members at request they call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303." www.karstvonoiste.com/

* Squamous cell carcinoma: Begins in the thin, flat cells that line the passages of the respiratory tract, makes up just under 30% of lung cancer diagnoses.

* Large cell carcinoma: Poorly differentiated (has none of the features that would allow it to be diagnosed as another type of NSCLC), Faster growing form of NSCLC, makes up about 9% of lung cancer diagnoses.

* Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) makes up 15-20% of all lung cancer cases. It is a type of neuroendocrine tumor with cells that are smaller in size than most other cancer cells. It is a fast-growing cancer that spreads rapidly to other parts of the body. https://USNavyLungCancer.Com
