US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate Urges a Navy Veteran with Lung Cancer to Call Attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste If the Veteran Had Navy Asbestos Exposure-Compensation May Exceed $100,000+

    WASHINGTON, DC, August 25, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate is urging the wife or adult son-daughter of a Navy Veteran who has just received news he has lung cancer to please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 to discuss what might turn out to be significant financial compensation-if while serving in the navy he had heavy to extreme exposure to asbestos. Financial compensation for a person like this might be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and the claim does not involve suing the navy. Most Navy Veterans who develop lung cancer after being exposed to asbestos in the 1950s, 1960s or 1970s are not aware the $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for them too. www.karstvonoiste.com/

The Advocate says, "The types of Navy Veterans who now have lung cancer and who had heavy to extreme exposure to asbestos on a navy ship, submarine or at a shipyard while their ship or submarine was undergoing an overhaul may have totally forgotten about their asbestos exposure. We urging the friends or neighbors of a person like this to please share our press release with the immediate family of a Navy Veteran like this with the request they call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 to discuss what might turn out to be significant financial compensation.

"We also need to mention aside from Navy Veterans who had heavy to extreme exposure to asbestos on a ship, submarine or at a shipyard we are always more than happy to try to assist a person who had significant exposure to asbestos at work prior to 1982 and who has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer. Financial compensation for a person like this might also exceed a hundred thousand dollars as attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste is always happy to discuss at 800-714-0303. Compensation for a person like this is based on how, where and when they were exposed to asbestos." www.karstvonoiste.com/
