Exposure to toxic chemicals can cause a variety of physical problems. Asbestos exposure is, of course, extremely dangerous. Unfortunately, many employees have been and continue to be exposed to asbestos on a regular basis in the workplace. The attorneys at the office of Summers & Wyatt, P.C. have been in asbestos and mesothelioma litigation for over 20 years. These members of our firm have substantial and unique experience in this complex and ever-changing area of the law.

Our office has handled cases for many clients that work in and around the greater Chattanooga, Tennessee area. Many individuals have worked for or had some association with the DuPont, Combustion Engineering, and T.V.A. facilities in this area. Pipe fitters, insulators, machinists, boilermakers, and even the individuals washing the clothing of these types of employees are at risk for asbestos exposure.
