Were you present in Lower Manhattan after the September 11, 2001 attacks and later diagnosed with a related illness?

Thousands of first responders, cleanup workers, volunteers, residents, and local employees were exposed to dangerous airborne toxins after 9/11 – including asbestos, fiberglass, silica dust, heavy metals, and jet-fuel contaminants.

Over time, medical studies and government programs have linked this exposure to serious respiratory conditions and certain cancers.

If you were present in covered exposure areas and later developed a qualifying illness, you may be eligible to file a claim for compensation and medical benefits.
