Roane County Mesothelioma Lawyer – Asbestos Risk in Power & Utility Jobs


If you’re searching for a Roane County mesothelioma lawyer, you or a family member may have been diagnosed with mesothelioma after asbestos exposure in this rural region of West Virginia. While Roane County lacks the industrial profile of places like Marshall County or Wood County, local workers still faced daily exposure through utility work, pipeline construction, and take-home asbestos carried into homes.

If you or a loved one lived or worked in Roane County, West Virginia, and were diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease, you may be entitled to compensation. From utility jobs to power station maintenance, workers in Roane County were regularly exposed to asbestos on the job—and many brought that dust home to their families.

As a trusted Roane County mesothelioma lawyer, I’ve handled thousands of asbestos claims across West Virginia, including cases tied to rural pipeline work, utility infrastructure, and take-home exposure from family members employed in trades.


Where Did Asbestos Exposure Happen in Roane County?

While Roane County didn’t house large-scale industrial plants like the Kanawha Valley, the risk was still real. Common exposure sources included:

  • Power line installation and substation maintenance
  • Pipeline and utility trenching crews across rural WV
  • Asbestos cement pipe in water systems
  • Schools and public buildings in Spencer, WV built before 1980
  • Boiler systems and pipe insulation in county facilities

If your father, husband, or grandfather worked in power, gas, construction, or public works, your family may have suffered take-home asbestos exposure—even if you never set foot on a jobsite.

Take-Home Asbestos Cases in Roane County

In many homes, the danger wasn’t just on the job—it was at the kitchen table.

Asbestos dust from work boots, uniforms, and tools traveled home on clothing, lunch pails, and car seats. Family members were often exposed doing laundry or hugging a loved one after work. Many were later diagnosed with mesothelioma, decades after that exposure.

West Virginia courts have long recognized the right of these families to pursue justice through take-home asbestos lawsuits.
