WASHINGTON, April 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — The Mesothelioma Compensation Center is urging any diagnosed victim of mesothelioma who was exposed to asbestos at a power plant as a plumber, boiler tech, insulator, electrician, welder, or maintenance crew member to call them at 866-714-6466 for a very helpful conversation focused on important actions. http://MesotheliomaCompensationCenter.Com

The Mesothelioma Compensation Center says, "According to the CDC, power plant workers in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and even the 1980s were frequently exposed to asbestos on a daily basis. This is especially true if they were a plumber, welder, member of a maintenance crew, insulation technician, machinist, boiler technician, or an electrician. We are talking about almost any type of power plant during this time frame including coal fired, hydro-electric, or nuclear. We are also talking about workers who basically had zero protection when it came to breathing in asbestos.

"Because power plant workers who have been diagnosed with mesothelioma can receive some of the highest compensation awards, as in million-dollar-plus settlements, we are urging individuals who now have this rare cancer to call us at 866-714-6466 so we can carefully explain why it is so incredibly vital to have the nation's best mesothelioma lawyers advancing their claim.

"As we would like to explain to any power plant worker, now diagnosed with mesothelioma that reaches out for help at http://MesotheliomaCompensationCenter.Com, there are a group of the nation's top mesothelioma lawyers who consistently get the best compensation results for their clients, and then there are the local personal injury attorneys who might have done one or two mesothelioma compensation claims in their entire career.

"In most cases, power plant workers were afforded no protection against asbestos during the previously mentioned decades. What we are now offering those workers is the very best protection they can get, as in the nation's top mesothelioma compensation lawyers."

The Mesothelioma Compensation Center is urging diagnosed victims who were exposed to asbestos at a power plant, or their family members to review the US Coast Guard website titled, "AST Keeps Eyes On Asbestos In Crumbling Power Plant," and compare the clothing now worn by government workers at a power plant, versus power plant workers in the 1960s and 1970s that had no protective clothing to shelter them from asbestos.
