Benzene Cases Overview


Benzene-Exposed Workers Diagnosed with Benzene-Related Cancers and Diseases


In a rush? You can use our Quick Contact Form to tell us the basic information about your case.


Benzene-exposed workers may develop benzene-related cancers and diseases including acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

It is important that workers and their families understand that a medical diagnosis of AML leukemia or MDS will probably be made many years after one’s last exposure to benzene.  This is due to the “latency period”, or lag time, between the person’s benzene exposures while working with or around benzene and their eventual later development of AML leukemia or MDS.

Generally speaking, benzene was used on the job or in the workplace for many different industries.  However, significant levels of benzene exposure were more likely for particular types of workers within certain industries.  For purposes of determining those possible past benzene exposures, one should keep in mind that benzene can be a colorless liquid with a sweet odor, or a colorless gas.

Or, if you prefer, call 800-426-9535 to speak with attorney Tom Lamb about a possible benzene case. Either way, you will get Mr. Lamb’s impressions — not an intake person, a paralegal, or some other lawyer — about your case based on his many years of experience.


We Represent People in Cases Involving Benzene-Exposed Workers

We have successfully handled these personal injury and wrongful death cases around the country for many years.

We do put any of our benzene clients into large class actions. We know it is better when an individual lawsuit is filed for each case in order to get the best results for our clients.

We point out that for all of our benzene clients, no legal fees or any other costs are paid until after we get legal compensation for their benzene case.

Finally, there are no costs associated with having us review the facts of a possible benzene lawsuit that would be filed on behalf of a benzene-exposed worker and/or their family.  Be assured that the information you provide to our law firm is treated as strictly confidential. Submitting an online Benzene Case Review does not obligate you to hire our law firm. And you will get a reply directly from attorney Tom Lamb no later than the next business day.

In the alternative, feel free to call us at 800-426-9535 to discuss with Tom Lamb the facts of a benzene cancer case or benzene disease case.
