If you’re passionate about mesothelioma legal news, you won’t want to miss the highlights from the 16th Annual Asbestos Awareness and Prevention Conference which took place on Friday, September 17, 2021. This event served as a powerful platform to discuss asbestos awareness, advocacy, and to share stories from individuals impacted by asbestos exposure.
The conference opened with remarks from Linda Reinstein, a well-known figure in the fight against asbestos. The program was then moderated by Christine Oliver, MD, MPH, MSc, AM, a renowned health professional who added her expert insights to the conversation.
Supporters of the cause, including Barbara Minty McQueen, sent heartfelt video messages to the attendees. McQueen is an advocate for mesothelioma awareness, having lost her husband, actor Steve McQueen, to the disease.
Notably, the event was sponsored by prominent law firms specializing in asbestos litigation, including Early, Lucarelli, Sweeney & Meisenkothen and Simmons Hanly Conroy, LLC. Both firms shared supportive messages, underscoring their commitment to individuals and families affected by asbestos-related diseases.
