Navy veterans exposed to asbestos fibers in the course of their lives are at risk of developing chronic lung conditions caused by inhaling asbestos fibers. Depending on the length of time exposed, as well as the number of fibers ingested, symptoms can range from mild to severe. If you were exposed to asbestos while serving aboard the USS Rolf (DE-362) and developed a condition based upon that exposure during your time in service you may be able to obtain financial compensation for your pain and suffering, medical expenses, and other costs by filing legal claims.
