What do you need to know about mesothelioma?

Claims for diseases related to asbestos exposure are complex claims in which the lawyer has to be from a technical point of view fully informed. Mesothelioma lawyers want to know and understand this disease and the rights they have.

The reason for existence of these claims is that there is medical evidence linking asbestos with this type of cancer. There are many cases in which judges have decided that this disease have been responsible for the company that manufactured and used asbestos and who put their workers in a situation of risk.

When a judicial proceeding of this type starts is when the lawyer realizes that time is the essence of everything. And the aggressiveness of this cancer is such that the rate at which destroys the lungs and other vital organs makes life expectancy ranges between one and two years.

Another finding of particular relevance to these lawyers is that the death rate in workers exposed to asbestos is 300 times that of the general population. And the worst thing is not that, but many companies, especially since 1940-1980, knew the toxicity of this material and any information given to workers.

There are many ways in which occupational exposure to asbestos leads to mesothelioma include:

Shipyards. - Asbestos was widely used in shipyards, among others, in the steam pipes, hot water heaters and boilers.

Building construction. - products containing asbestos include insulation, concrete pipes, covers and tiles.

Demolition and remodeling. - When a building containing asbestos is demolished or repaired, workers can be exposed to deadly levels of asbestos fibers in the air

Exhibits also may be fatal secondary

Studies estimate that currently, despite the restriction of 2002, there are thousands of products containing asbestos. This means that more workers than there are more people who are at risk for mesothelioma. So there are few complaints of people suffering from mesothelioma who were exposed to asbestos in their homes.

So you can not say that there is a safe level of exposure to asbestos. If you have worked or lived near this material you may suffer from this disease
