A product liability claim is a claim that someone’s use of a product caused them to be exposed to asbestos and that asbestos exposure was a substantial contributing factor leading to their development of mesothelioma.
In general, the factors that influence the case is of course which product they were using, the time period they were using it.
The ingredients and what goes into particular products changes over time and we’ve discovered that through the litigation and we have records of those ingredient lists and what go into products.
The time period they use the products can affect it and then of course the frequency and the duration that they use the products.
So in general, if you have an asbestos-containing product that someone is exposed to, the more that they are using it, the stronger the case will be against the company that made that product.
