Special trusts have been set up by vendors and suppliers of the Boise Cascade plant to pay asbestos victims. You can make a claim without ever leaving your home. If you ever worked at the Boise Cascade plant before 1982 you may have been exposed to asbestos - and not even know it. You could be entitled to multiple cash settlements without even leaving your house, going to court, or filing a lawsuit. If you ever worked at the Boise Cascade plant, you were likely exposed to asbestos.
