What to Know Before Claiming Asbestos Compensation
As the population in the United States grows older, more people are being diagnosed with mesothelioma, a deadly form of cancer that has been linked to exposure to asbestos.
Until recently, asbestos was used in an array of industries, including construction, textile, mining, and milling. Many of the men and women who worked in these industries 20, 30, and even 40 years ago are now being diagnosed with health issues related to asbestos exposure–and many could be entitled to asbestos compensation.
Legal Aspects to Consider When Choosing a Mesothelioma Lawyer
Mesothelioma affects 3,000 Americans a year. It’s a type of cancer that attacks the lungs, stomach and heart. It can be deadly and it is almost always caused by exposure to asbestos. If you are diagnosed with it, you may be entitled to monetary compensation.
