Attorneys Representing Mesothelioma Victims
For more than 100 years, asbestos was part of the construction world. Today, we know that slow buildup of asbestos in the system contributes to asbestosis and mesothelioma, a cancer of the lining of the lungs, abdomen or heart. Even knowing of its dangers, thousands of businesses allowed workers and consumers to be exposed to asbestos, often without supplying safety equipment or education.
In fact, millions of Americans have been exposed to asbestos because of the fiber's presence in many workplaces, buildings, homes and household products, and hundreds of thousands of individuals have faced mesothelioma and early death as a result.

Do You Have a Legal Claim for Asbestos Exposure?
Mesothelioma is associated with the exposure to asbestos. There are many factors that go into determining whether or not you have a legal claim associated with the diagnosis of mesothelioma.
Our office examines how, when and where a person may have been exposed, how long he or she was exposed, and what injuries were approximately caused by any asbestos exposure.
What Is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that develops from transformed cells originating in the protective lining (called the mesothelioma) covering many of the internal organs of the body. Its primary cause is asbestos.
If you or a loved one has become ill due to asbestos exposure by an employer or from a manufactured product, we may be able to obtain compensation for you.
