Silicosis is a type of industrial injury caused by the inhalation of fine particles of stone or dust.  When an individual inhales enough of this material it can affect lung function and cause a number of respiratory and cardiovascular problems.

There are a number of types of silicosis, but two of the most infamous types are Black Lung Disease and Asbestosis.  Black Lung Disease is most often suffered by coal miners who must labor in poorly ventilated mines while inhaling coal dust.  Asbestosis is the consequence of anyone inhaling asbestos fibers over a period of time.  These small fibers destroy the delicate tissue in the lungs preventing the person from breathing properly.

If you or someone you love developed silicosis you may have a right to pursue a legal settlement based on your situation. Make sure that those responsible for your condition compensation you for your suffering.  Contact a lawyer today.
