Certain occupations expose individuals to high levels of dust, which can lead to serious health conditions. If you are suffering from a dust-related illness such as silicosis, asbestosis or mesothelioma, GMP Law is here to help you seek the compensation you deserve.

Our team of specialised personal injury law solicitors work hard to ensure you are rightfully compensated for your illness, as quickly as possible.

Am I eligible for dust disease compensation?

Those medically diagnosed with a chronic lung disease may be entitled to compensation providing that:

There is medical evidence confirming the presence of a chronic lung disease.
Claimants seeking common law damages against their employer or a third party can demonstrate that the lung disease resulted from negligence, or a breach of duty of care.

If your chronic lung disease is not caused by harmful particles, you are not eligible for compensation under a dust disease claim. Similarly, if your condition is not classified as a dust disease, such as pleural plaques, you cannot claim compensation.

Making a Claim

Filing a claim for a dust disease may appear complicated and challenging, but it doesn’t have to be. At GMP Law, we will support you every step of the way to ensure that you receive the maximum benefits from your dust disease claim.

We offer a no-obligation consultation directly with our personal injury law solicitors to help you understand your claim eligibility, potential compensation entitlements, and the legal process.

No two dust disease cases are ever the same, but typically, claims take between one year and 18 months to resolve. We understand that these claims are time-sensitive in nature, and we will work hard to advocate for you based on the state of your health.
