The widow of a man who recently died from mesothelioma has filed an asbestos suit in West Virginia.

56 companies have been named as defendants in the suit and the woman is holding them responsible for her husband’s sudden illness and death.

Woman Claims Husband Exposed at Work

Barbara Brewster filed the suit on behalf of her late husband, Jack Donsell Brewster Sr.
Guyan International Inc., where Jack was employed for over two decades, has specifically been named in the suit.

“The defendants did manufacture, install and supply asbestos and asbestos-containing products with which the decedent came in daily contact with,” explains the suit.

Man Diagnosed with Mesothelioma

According to the suit, Jack Brewster was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a form of cancer caused by exposure to asbestos, and later died from the illness.

Prior to his death, Barbara claims that he endured much suffering, mental anguish, loss of income and loss of enjoyment of life.

The widow also states that she lost the guidance and support of her husband.

Barbara is seeking compensation for her husband’s estate and for the damages that they both suffered.
