What is mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is a rare disease caused as a result of malignant cancerous
cells lining the patient's body cavities such as chest, abdominal region
or the area surrounding the heart. It is typically associated with
exposure to asbestos which has been documented in as many as 70-80% of
all mesothelioma cases. This disease is very difficult to assess
consistently due to the great variability in time before diagnosis and
the rate of progression of malignant mesothelioma.
Your legal rights:
Corporations that manufacture asbestos products have known about the
dangers of asbestos-related diseases for more than six decades. In an
effort to increase profit, they kept this information quiet, putting
workers and families at risk.
Working with asbestos causes serious diseases. Unfortunately, many
corporations thought they would be able to cut corners and make a large
profit at the expense of endangering workers. Fortunately, there are
laws that help to protect those individuals that have been harmed by
exposure to asbestos-related products.
