Most Navy Veterans like this do not realize the $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for them too. If your husband or dad is a Navy Veteran and you know he had substantial exposure to asbestos in the service-please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303.
