    ALBUQUERQUE, NM, July 02, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- According to the New Mexico US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer, "If you are a Navy Veteran in New Mexico who has just been diagnosed with lung cancer-please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303-if prior to 1982 you had heavy to extreme exposure to asbestos on a navy ship, submarine or at a navy shipyard. Financial compensation for a person like this might exceed one hundred thousand dollars-and it does not matter if you smoked cigarettes. What does matter is how, where, and when were you exposed to asbestos.

"The typical Navy Veteran or person we want to get identified has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer, they had significant exposure to asbestos in the Navy or at work prior to 1982, and they are over 60 years old. Most people like this are unaware the $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for them too. If the person we have just described sounds like your husband or dad and his lung cancer diagnosis is recent-please call attorney Erik Karst of the law firm of Karst von Oiste at 800-714-0303-to discuss possible financial compensation. We think you will be glad you did." www.karstvonoiste.com/
