Mesothelioma Doctors, Lawyers and Asbestos Exposure in Mobile, Alabama

Mobile is located on the Mobile River and the Gulf of Mexico, and it is Alabama's only seaport. The city's population was 198,915 during the 2000 census, and it is the largest municipality on the Gulf Coast. Mobile is home to several art museums, a ballet company, a symphony orchestra and many historic buildings. The city was a European settlement in 1702 and was incorporated in 1814.

Since the 1830s, Mobile was focused on cotton trading. During and after World War I, manufacturing was driving Mobile's economy including shipbuilding and steel production. Mobile's population grew between 1940 and 1943 when people flocked to Mobile to work at the shipyards and Brookley Army Air Field. During World War II, Alabama Drydock and Shipbuilding Company was producing ships at a very rapid pace. The Gulf Shipbuilding Corporation, a subsidiary of Waterman Steamship Corporation, built freighters, Fletcher class destroyers, and minesweepers. After World War II, shipbuilding decreased and paper and chemical industries began to grow. In the late 1960s, Brookley Air Force Base closed which led Mobile into an economic depression that lasted into the 1970s. In 1999, shipbuilding began to make a significant comeback with the founding of Austal USA. Currently, Mobile is the ninth largest port in the United States.

Shipbuilding and military job sites in and around the Mobile area like Alabama Dry Dock and Shipbuilding, Avondale Shipbuilding and Brookley Air Force Base have known asbestos exposure risks. Use of asbestos-containing products in these shipyards, military bases as well as other jobsites was prevalent in Mobile especially between 1930-1980.
