Diesel Exhaust

Diesel exhaust is a complicated mixture of gases, vapours and aerosols that contains various toxic substances. In addition to diesel soot, it also contains carbon monoxide hydrocarbons, and particulate matter. The fine particles that make up diesel fumes can be breathed that is to say they can be absorbed into the lungs. Long-term exposure to diesel exhaust can lead to a number of health problems, including breathing problems nasal and eye irritation nausea and headaches, loss in coordination, and even lung cancer disease.

Diesel engine exhaust is a source of hundreds of chemicals, including some that have been proven to cause certain cancers. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is part of the World Health Organization, has classified the carcinogenicity of diesel exhaust to humans.

The IARC's classification for diesel engine exhaust refers to research in the field of occupational medicine that suggests the connection between diesel fumes exposure and respiratory ailments which include lung cancer. These effects can be made worse by other factors like smoking and lifestyle choices for work, such as sitting in rooms that are poorly ventilated or confined for prolonged periods of time.

Diesel engines use Diesel Exhaust fluid to reduce emissions from diesel exhaust. This is a mix of urea, water, and other components. Urea is an organic byproduct of metabolic process that occurs in mammals and is often found in urine. Diesel Exhaust Fluid is produced by heating ammonia in a catalytic convertor emphysema settlement together with other components.

Asbestos

Asbestos, a heat-resistant, fire-retardant mineral, was regularly inhaled by railroad workers. It was extensively used for many rail-related products, including trains and locomotives. As these items degrade and break down, they release tiny asbestos fibers that are released into the air. Inhaling these fibers can cause serious lung diseases like asbestosis or mesothelioma.

Rail companies knew asbestos can cause illness and deaths to their employees, but did not take any steps to protect them. This is a clear breach of the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA).

Asbestos consists of naturally occurring fibers that are incredibly strong and resistant to heat. The fibers can remain in the air for days after being disturbed. This allows people to inhale the fibers. As asbestos fibers are inhaled, they can go deep into the lungs, causing permanent lung damage. Asbestosis is, mesothelioma and many other asbestos-related diseases take years to manifest. They are also often misinterpreted as other illnesses, making mesothelioma incredibly difficult to diagnose in its early stages.

Railroaders suffering from mesothelioma as well as related conditions are entitled to compensation for the losses they suffered. They put their lives and energy into a career which was betrayed in a cruel manner and denied them the pleasure of their golden age. The lawyers at Doran & Murphy can help families get the compensation they are entitled to.

Wrongful Death

If someone dies as because of the negligence, act, misdeeds or omissions of a third party, the survivors can make a wrongful demise lawsuit. It's a civil action that is subject to a lower standard of proof than a criminal trial. Victims may pursue compensation. The survivors of the family members can be awarded economic damages and other loss, including the suffering of the victim, loss of companionship and a portion of the victim's estate.

Certain states have laws governing the types of damages that can be awarded in wrongful death cases. Others leave it open. The most common wrongful death claims are the cost of funeral expenses, burial costs as well as emotional distress, lost wages and loss of consortium along with punitive damages.

As we mentioned above, FELA gives victims of work-related lung diseases and cancers such as obstructive or chronic lung disease, the opportunity to hold railroad corporations accountable. But, often the worst health effects don't become evident for 20, 30, or even 40 years after a worker has stopped working for the Emphysema railroad cancer settlements.

As a result, many of the claims that are brought under FELA are also lawsuits for wrongful death. The estate of a deceased person is able to bring a wrongful-death claim as well as a survivorship action where they seek to claim compensation for medical expenses, loss of companionship, and other economic or non-economic losses that took place prior to the death of the victim.
