\"asbestos-exposure\"BBC reports today confirmed that a mother has sadly passed away from contracting an asbestos related illness as a result of asbestos exposure while at school.<\/p>\n

Diane Wilmore from North Wales was exposed to asbestos particles in the 1970\u2019s during her attendance at a Merseyside School, the report confirms (source<\/a>). Her death came just one day after a judge ordered an award of £240,000 in damages as a result of her suffering and illness.
\n<\/p>\n

The High Court ruled that her inhalation of asbestos fibres in her school days was \u201cforeseeably hazardous<\/strong>\u201d, with this case being the first ever to conclude in favour of a pupil claiming damages as a result of school related exposure to the dangerous silicate.<\/p>\n

Initially the local authority in charge of the school appealed the decision, taking the case to the High Court, in which the council were informed that they \u201cdid not have a case to pursue\u201d. <\/p>\n

The report confirms that the lady had advised the court that her exposure originated from fibres though ceiling tiles in the school toilets, which were often used as a hiding place for pupils\u2019 property. <\/p>\n

The success of this case, despite the tragic death of Mrs Wilmore, could now set the stage for other sufferers of asbestos related illnesses to get the compensation<\/a> they deserve!<\/p>\n

With claims such as these it is significantly important to seek advice from an independent expert personal injury solicitor. It is often the case that causation (i.e. how an injury \/ disease is caused) is difficult to establish and prove indefinitely, with payouts sometimes being difficult to succeed.<\/p>\n

Getting an expert personal injury solicitor instructed to act on your behalf could potentially dictate the success of your claim for personal injury<\/a>! <\/p>\n

If you have suffered a similar illness or injury as a result of exposure to asbestos or another industrial product, we advise that you seek expert legal advice now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
