West Virginia Personal Injury Lawsuit Claims Alleged Asbestos Exposure Contributed to Man’s Death!
Posted by Editor | Posted in Personal Injury Cases in the News
An executrix has filed a personal injury lawsuit in West Virginia against 45 companies on behalf of the estate of a man who died from alleged asbestos exposure. A story in The West Virginia Record detailed the lawsuit’s allegations, including a claim that Melvin Cunningham Sr. died of mesothelioma which he supposedly contracted from abestos-related products at various power companies in 27 years. Patricia Paith filed the personal injury lawsuit against a long list of companies, including American Electric Power, Ohio Power Company and West Penn Company; all of which the deceased Cunningham worked for between 1966 and 1993. Melvin Cunnigham’s widow Angela is also listed as a plaintiff in the personal injury lawsuit. We’ll keep you updated on the latest developments with this personal injury case, which has yet to be assigned to a judge.
That’s really unfortunate. I hope they have a good Mesothelioma asbestos attorney to help fight this case. Is this an example of what a wrongful death is? I have a feeling it is going to be difficult to pin point which company had exposed him to asbestos, if it was a company at all. It could have been his own house, or someone’s house.
Are there any Mesothelioma Treatment Centers in Illinois? Or do you have to go to certain states where they specialize in the disease? I know the largest Center is located in Australia. I also heard they were able to cure a man in Australia, although it took a lot of surgery and removal of protective lining to do it. I think that would be the number one place to go to.
