Protect Your Mesothelioma Legal Rights

Your Legal Claims

Mesothelioma is, and should have been, a completely avoidable cancer. It is caused by breathing asbestos dust, including breathing asbestos dust taken home to the family on the clothes of the person who worked around asbestos. The relationship between asbestos dust and malignant mesothelioma is one of the most well-proven cause and effects in all of cancer medicine. Despite the industry's knowledge of the dangers of asbestos, the defendants did not place warnings on their products and equipment about the dangers of asbestos. Someone with mesothelioma has legal claims against these companies.

National Mesothelioma Experience Required

The laws of each state vary when it comes to cases like those involving mesothelioma. Some states give priority to mesothelioma cases in terms of trial dates. Some states have different statutes of limitations affecting when a case can be files and still others allow for the recovery of more damages than other states. Therefore, it will be important for your lawyers to work with you to determine the most favorable state in which to file your case given your past asbestos exposure and other considerations. Because of the long latency period from the time of exposure to the time of diagnosis, it is likely that you no longer live where you were exposure. For these reasons, your lawsuit may be filed in a state other than where you live.

Given our national experience, Galiher DeRobertis Ono will be able to assess this most effectively and to take steps to ensure your case is presented in the way most beneficial to you and your family.
