Meet Steve and his lawyer, Jonathan.
Mining was Steve's life; his underground colleagues were his family.
What Steve didn’t know was that his job was making him sick.
Exposure to varying levels of silica dust over his entire working life left Steve struggling for breath, and he was eventually diagnosed with advanced silicosis, otherwise known as progressive massive fibrosis.
Following his diagnosis, Steve contacted Maurice Blackburn Lawyers for advice on making a compensation claim.
Jonathan Walsh, a Principal Lawyer specialising in dust diseases, travelled to Mount Isa to meet Steve, listen to his story, and explain his legal options. Together, they mapped out a plan for the future.
