Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that affects the lungs and abdomen. It is caused by inhaling or swallowing asbestos fibers, a hazardous mineral. Mesothelioma symptoms are slow to appear; they sometimes do not show up until 30 to 50 years after asbestos exposure. There is no cure for this deadly health condition. Exposure to asbestos usually occurs at the workplace. Certain occupations have a high risk for asbestos exposure, including welders, auto mechanics, Navy yard workers, carpenters, plumbers and electricians to name a few. Although, the Environmental Protection Agency has banned most asbestos products due to its health risks, there are still old structures that have asbestos present. These old structures pose a health risk to construction and maintenance workers that continue to work on them.

The companies that manufactured, installed and sold asbestos products had knowledge dating back to the 1930s that asbestos exposure was dangerous, yet they never informed the public. Thousands of people have developed this preventable disease. Individuals suffering from an asbestos injury may have legal recourse.

If you or a loved one has developed mesothelioma you should immediately contact an experienced mesothelioma law firm. You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. Contact the attorneys at Gordon & Doner for a free case evaluation.
