Asbestos Lawsuit Results in $71M Damage Verdict for Mesothelioma Injury November 18, 2014 Irvin Jackson Add Your Comments A former U.S. Navy machinist who was exposed to asbestos over a number of years has been awarded $71 million in a mesothelioma lawsuit. The complaint was filed by Richard Whalen and his wife, Linda, against packing and gasket manufacturer John Crane.

The asbestos lawsuit claimed that Whalen was exposed to the toxic substances, in part, because of working on and around packing and gaskets made by John Crane.
