Justice for Sellafield Asbestos Victim
A leading industrial illness lawyer has won justice for the family of a man who died after being exposed to asbestos whilst working at the Sellafield nuclear plant. John Scott was 76 when he died of Mesothelioma, a form of lung cancer caused by exposure to asbestos, in June 2008. He worked for the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority from 1958 until 1993 as an electrician, chargehand electrician and eventually as foreman. His nephew, Joseph Cunningham, of Stockport, instructed Isobel Lovett from Irwin Mitchell, to pursue a claim against the company, now known as Sellafield Ltd. She
