Justinian Lane’s grandfather survived World War II but later faced a deadly battle with asbestos exposure—an illness that impacted three generations of their family. This deeply personal experience inspired Lane to shift from a career in IT to becoming a dedicated advocate for asbestos victims, a powerful journey he shares in this compelling conversation.
Lane explains how asbestos, once as widespread as plastic, is a hidden danger that was embedded in everyday life for decades. He vividly illustrates how its microscopic, razor-sharp fibers can travel long distances through the air and cause lasting lung damage, with effects that still impact lives years after exposure.
Lane shares the most shocking part of the story: how corporations knowingly hid the dangers of asbestos. Some even x-rayed workers in secret to spot early signs of harm, then quietly reassigned them without explanation. These companies avoided responsibility by exploiting the decades-long gap between exposure and illness while workers remained in the dark.
Lane highlights a growing focus in today’s litigation: cases involving contaminated cosmetic talc and “secondary exposure,” where people—often children—develop serious illnesses decades later just from handling a parent's asbestos-laced work clothes. His investigative work traces these exposures across generations, revealing both the legal complexities and the deep human toll of corporate negligence.
