An asbestos bankruptcy trust was filed for in 2006 for C.E. Thurston & Sons Inc., 3335 Croft Street Norfolk VA 23513 under the name C. E. Thurston & Sons Asbestos Trust. Asbestos bankruptcy trusts are typically set up so that people who become victims of asbestos exposure can potentially obtain financial compensation for any illness incurred as a result of such exposure, including mesothelioma.
In 1919, C.E. Thurston started a small business that would later grow to the larger organization as we know it today, C.E. Thurston & Sons. The company specializes in providing insulation to businesses dealing in extreme temperatures- either hot or cold. As a speciality contractor, over its history, it has engaged in the sale, installation, maintenance, repair, and removal of insulation products that contain asbestos. However, it has never been involved in the mining or manufacturing of these materials. The company did not stop using asbestos products until the end of the 1970s when new government regulation brought to light the harmful effects of asbestos exposure and its connection to Mesothelioma. As a result of the asbestos insulation, the company became the defendant in thousands of personal injury claims.
In 2003, after attempting to deal with its asbestos-related claims on its own, Thurston filed for Chapter 11 under the US Bankruptcy Code to seek resolution of its liablities. In 2006, after emerging from bankruptcy, the C. E. Thurston & Sons Asbestos Trust was formed to pay all present and future claims against the organization alleging personal injury or property damage related to asbestos exposure as well as any claims that arose from the personal injury or property damage claims (http://www.claimsres.com).
