    Retroperitoneal Fibrosis Claims

    Retroperitoneal fibrosis claims often stem from asbestos exposure in the workplace and the illness itself can sometimes be known as Ormond’s disease.

    What Is Retroperitoneal Fibrosis?

    Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a rare condition which is manifested as a lump of tissue that sits in the abdomen, located close to the kidneys. The effects of the condition include loss of bladder function and control; a high temperature; weight loss; kidney damage; sickness and pain in the back and/or abdomen.

    Retroperitoneal claims can often be complex cases and sometimes there are no clear causes why people get it. However, research has proven that, in some instances, it can be caused by asbestos exposure.

    It is advisable to tell the medical professional who is dealing with your retroperitoneal condition whether or not you have been exposed to asbestos while at work.

    Making A Claim Against Your Employer

    Many people can feel deterred from making a workplace compensation claim as they are concerned about bringing a claim against their employer. All employers have a duty to protect employees while they are in the workplace, if your employer has failed to do so then it has been negligent and you are legally entitled to begin a claim against them.

    All employers must carry out risk assessments at the required intervals; provide protective clothing and equipment where necessary and they must also adhere to other health and safety procedures specific to their industry, for example, if you work with dangerous substances and chemicals your employer must follow the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health regulations which form part of the procedures set out by the Health and Safety Executive.
