7th November 2008. Welcome to the Higgins & Co blog site. Up until a few weeks ago I hadn't a clue what a blog was, in fact I'm not that sure I fully understand now. It appears that a blog is a written entry expressing the authors views on a particular topic. A bit like Speaker's Corner in Hyde Park, only a blog can be seen by the whole world. If I am wrong I am sure that somebody out there will let me know.

Anyway it is our intention to make regular blogs on a variety of topics that concern asbestos diseases in the hope that they will be of some use to someone somewhere. We intend to update the reader on a regular basis with articles concerning asbestos disease and compensation payable together with any topical news on any changes to the law that concerns this subject matter.

If anybody else wishes to enter a blog then they are more than welcome to do so.
