It is the buyers responsibility to have the home inspected by a qualified inspector, who would have found the asbestos. Your recourse now is little to none ... especially if it was not noted to the seller before the papers were signed. That cost of an inspector now is very small compared to a contractor having to remove the offending material, not to mention the inconvenience of it all.
If you have an asbestos problem in your building, then yes, you should consider hiring an asbestos attorney. However, you should probably first make sure there is an architectural problem before doing so

Asbestos is a very serious and growing problem. I would check with a county attorney to see what laws are applicable for tenants who are suffering from asbestos infestation. If no laws were being broken, I would try to talk to my land lord.
You will need a certified home inspector to identify the asbestos as a problem. If it is not a problem, it is actually safer to leave it in place and seal it in with rubber or plastic. If it does need to be removed, you will again need a certified person to do it. The main thing they will have to do is to seal the area they are working in.
Congress could eliminate gerrymandering by issuing each representative districts that are of equal size and mostly square. However, I do not believe that congress would want to eliminate the problem. It certainly is a problem for us, but unfortunately for the representatives, it isn't. There definitely should be something done about it, though.
Concrete pipes used to carry water were sometimes made with asbestos, which was used to stregnthen the pipe. Over years and years of water running through the pipes, some erosion will occur and asbestos fibers will get into the water being distributed - although in very low concentrations. If the use of water contaminated with small concentrations of asbestos is harmful, then asbestos use in water pipes is harmful. The problem is that there is no agreement in the scientific community as to whether asbestos in water at the concentrations observed is, in fact, harmful.
