Mesothelioma Lawyer

The wife and two children of Calvin Oxford were awarded in excess of $2 million in total damages by a San Francisco jury because of her late husband’s asbestos-related death. Calvin Oxford worked in the Navy in the 1960s, where he was an attendant in the Navy’s fighter ships and worked on marine boilers and died from Mesothelioma.

Oxford contacted Mesothelioma, the deadly cancer of the lining of the lung, while working on the U.S.S. Klondike. He worked for four years on the marine boilers manufactured by Foster Wheeler. Oxford was exposed to asbestos dust from the insulation, gaskets and packings commonly used to outfit ship boilers.

The rury found Foster Wheeler negligent in supplying asbestos-containing boilers to the Navy.  For more information, contact the Mesothelioma Lawsuit Attorneys at Williams Kherkher at 1.800.220.9341.
