Wheeling West Virginia Mesothelioma & Asbestos Lawsuits
In 2014, a verdict was awarded to a former pipefitter who had worked for a local union for 41 years before finally retiring. His job required him to work with gaskets produced by John Crane, Inc. that contained asbestos in them. The man contracted mesothelioma as a result. The jury found that John Crane was negligent by not warning the man about the dangers of its products. They also found the gaskets to be defective. Prior to the verdict, the parties had already stipulated about the amount of damages.
