Woman with Mesothelioma Sues 84 Companies
An Oklahoma woman recently diagnosed with mesothelioma is suing 84 companies, claiming that she developed the deadly disease as a result of their negligence.
On February 21 st, Lisa Rawlings was diagnosed with mesothelioma—a cancer almost exclusively caused by asbestos exposure. According to Rawlings’ complaint, her father, a mechanic, and her husband, a welder, carried the dangerous fibers home on their clothes.
“Dust created by working with and around asbestos and asbestos-containing products would permeate the person and clothing of the plaintiff’s family members. This dust contained asbestos fiber,” the complaint states. “The plaintiff would be repeatedly exposed to this asbestos dust from her family members’ person and clothing.”
The lawsuit accuses the defendants of failing to inform their employees of ways to prevent carrying the dust home on their person.
Rawlings, who also claims she was exposed to asbestos during home and automotive projects, is seeking more than $300,000 in compensatory and punitive damages.
