Asbestos & Mesothelioma
Asbestos exposure typically occurs in industrial settings, ship building, the construction trades and in automotive work. Repeated exposure to asbestos can cause a number of serious illnesses, including malignant mesothelioma. Mesothelioma, also known as “asbestos cancer”, is a life-threatening cancer of the mesothelium, which is the tissue around the lungs and other internal organs. Unfortunately, there is no known cure for this insidious cancer, but it is often treated by chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, all of which may improve a patient’s life expectancy and quality of life.
An experienced mesothelioma attorney can assist mesothelioma and other asbestos-related cancer victims as they navigate the litigation process; this includes identifying the manufacturers of the specific asbestos-containing products that the victims have been exposed to. If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma or one of the other asbestos-related cancers: lung cancer, colon cancer, laryngeal cancer and stomach cancer, you should contact a lawyer who can explain your rights and help you investigate a potential claim for compensation. The lawyers at Heninger Garrison Davis have successfully handled hundreds of asbestos cancer cases, and we will gladly evaluate a potential case on your behalf or on behalf of your loved one.
