If you have an asbestos related disease such as mesothelioma or asbestosis it is likely that you will be entitled to claim compensation.

Report
Peninsula Injury Lawyers are professional, thorough, and advocative as they step you through the process of injury compensation. I had complete trust and confidence that I was being advised with honesty and transparency. I always felt my best interests were represented and Penny's knowledge and expertise is outstanding. I would have no hesitation in recommending PIL to anyone requiring or enquiring about representation.
