HOUSTON, Sept. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Mesothelioma Victims Center is appealing to the family of a Navy Veteran or shipyard worker who has recently been diagnosed with mesothelioma to please attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303 for a no obligation review of what the person's compensation settlement package might look like. Frequently financial compensation for people like this might exceed a million dollars. For a career Navy Veteran or shipyard worker a mesothelioma compensation settlement package might be in the millions of dollars. 

"Erik Karst is one of the nation's most experienced mesothelioma attorneys and he and his colleagues will be able to maximize mesothelioma compensation for a Navy Veteran or shipyard worker with this rare cancer caused by asbestos exposure. Most Navy Veterans who have mesothelioma when asked about being a shipyard worker-say no they were not-until you ask them were you ever required to stay on your navy ship or sub for shipyard repairs? At that point many will say-yes-I worked with the shipyard workers on my ship or sub. Some of the worst types of asbestos exposures took place in a shipyard.

"If your husband or dad has mesothelioma and he is a Navy Veteran or former shipyard worker please call attorney Erik Karst at the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303. Because of the Coronavirus many people with mesothelioma are not pursuing financial compensation. Please don't-do this. If you call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste we think you will find him to be a remarkable resource." www.karstvonoiste.com/
